Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Changes in the intensity of specific endometriosis symptoms from baseline pre-surgeryEvery 3 months in the first 12 months after surgery and every 6 months in the following 12 months

The specific endometriosis symptoms include pelvic pain, dysmenorrhoea, pain at time of ovulation, dyspareunia to be assessed with a 10-cm visual analogue scale (VAS).

Other symptoms (Amenorrhea, menorrhagia, metrorrhagia, Global GI symptoms \& urinary discomfort,) will be assessed by oral enquiry to the patients based on numerical scale from 0 to 10 (0 being the best and 10 the worst status).

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change during the study period in symptom(s) having the highest intensity at baseline24 months

The highest intensity at baseline is defined as the symptom with the highest score on pre-surgery assessment.

Abdominal pain-free intervalEvery 3 months in the first 12 months after surgery and every 6 months in the following 12 months

Assessed using a visual analogue scale (VAS).

Recurrence rate of specific endometriosis symptomsAt 12 months and 24 months

Recurrence rate of specific endometriosis symptoms in the group of patients with mild or null symptoms score following surgery and Diphereline treatment.

Rate of pregnancy in subjectsAt 12 months and 24 months
Disease profile of DIE patients treated by Diphereline and by duration of treatment.24 months

The disease profile (size of the lesion, locations etc...) will be detailed in each group of treatment duration by descriptive statistics.
