This retrospective cohort study evaluates the association between postoperative hormonal treatment and recurrence of ovarian endometriosis in women undergoing surgery for ovarian endometrioma. The study includes patients treated at a single center who initiated one postoperative hormonal regimen after surgery. The main objective is to compare the risk of recurrence among women receiving combined oral contraceptives, gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonists, dienogest, or dydrogesterone. Recurrence is assessed during follow-up based on postoperative clinical and ultrasound findings. The results may help clarify the comparative effectiveness of commonly used postoperative hormonal strategies for reducing recurrence after surgery for ovarian endometrioma.
