Why When no uterus ABT volume options reduction matter is a priority, high dose GnRH antagonist without ABT is a relevant strategy Magnetic resonance images showing an enlarged uterus with diffuse and disseminated adenomyosis in a 39 year old women A potential therapeutic strategy for treating adenomyosis could be to initiate a patient on a full suppression dose (200 mg) without ABT to quickly reduce uterine volume 3 873 cm 290 cm3 30%+ of women of reproductive age are affected by adenomyosis often coexisting with endometriosis or uterine fibroids After more than 1 year without therapy, a very large uterus is After 12 weeks of GnRH antagonist therapy (daily dose of 200 seen, with multiple images typical of severe full-thickness mg linzagolix), a significant reduction is observed adenomyosis Gonadotropin –releasing hormone antagonist (linzagolix): a new therapy for uterine adenomyosis.
