Abstract
Background: Endometriosis is a gynaecological disorder characterized by the presence of endometrial tissue outside the uterine cavity. The process of angiogenesis is regulated by VEGF which plays an important role in the development of endometriosis implants. Metformin is an insulin sensitizer that is known to have a beneficial effect in the treatment of endometriosis and DLBS3233 is a PPARγ agonist, it is hoped that it can reduce VEGF and reduce endometrial implants..
