While none of the currently available treatment options for endometriosis pain resolved the underlying disease process, there are growing numbers of medical alternatives available. Medical options include the GnRH agonists and antagonists. Review of these treatments in the management of endometriosis pain and the insight often to the etiology of endometriosis are presented for discussion.
