Pain, the most common symptom in endometriosis, has been reported in up to 50% of patients. Human peritoneal endometriotic lesions are innervated by nerve fibers that appear to be responsible for much of the pain and local tenderness. A num…

Previous studies in an experimental mouse model of endometriosis have shown that the dopamine agonist (DA) cabergoline (Cb2) reduces angiogenesis and endometriotic lesions, hypothetically binding to the dopamine receptor type-2 (DRD2). To d…
