monocentric randomized controlled trial enrolment of endometriosis patients from certified endometriosis centers. Randomization to control group (no Endo App use) vs intervention group (Endo App use) 12 weeks use / no use of Endo App. Evaluation of quality of life at onset, at 4, 8 and 12 weeks by using endometriosis health profile (EHP) 5 as a global index. Statistical analysis of global index at the end minus global index at onset between control and intervention group.
randomized controlled trial enrolment of patients with diagnosed endometriosis 300 patients in total, 150 patients per group, randomization to control group (no Endo App use) vs intervention group (12 weeks Endo App use). The Endo App is a german language certified medical device which can be used to monitor the disease and gives support by providing complementary, multimodal interventions to standard therapy and is commercially available. Purpose of this study is the evaluation of quality of life at onset and then at 4, 8 and 12 weeks by using endometriosis health profile (EHP) 5 as a global index.
