“…The first [14] identified 15 randomised trials including 850 patients. The combined odds of recurrence was noted to be lower in the COCP group compared with surgery alone (odds ratio (OR) 0.31, 95% CI 0.22, 0.45; p < 0.001) The second [15] evaluated the use of prolonged (at least 2 years) postoperative COCP use on endometrioma recurrence in a total of 965 women (726 in cohort studies and 239 in one randomised controlled trial).…”

In addition, pregnancy could suppress the growth, implantation and infiltration of ectopic en-dometrial tissue because of elevated progesterone levels [27]. Hence, gynaecologists should optimize the timing of conservative surgery based on the patient's child bearing requirements.…”
