NCT02103764

Brief Summary

The objectives of the present study is to determine the effectiveness of cyclic desogestrel (DSG) compared with cyclic medroxyprogesterone acetate for the treatment of anovulatory dysfunctional uterine bleeding (DUB) in the following aspects:

  1. 1.Endometrial histopathology changes
  2. 2.Menstrual cycle control.
