Subgroup analysis in women with a future child wish
In the subgroup model, it is shown that improving fatigue symptoms
(34%) together with reducing pain (28%) and improving fertility (24%)
are the three most important attributes when making a choice for
conservative treatment (86% of the relative importance). Reducing
endometriosis (14%) shows a low relative importance. Lower chance on
osteoporosis and impact on mood did not show a significant effect.
The subgroup model also shows that the chance of permanent intestinal
symptoms (35%), reducing pain (21%) and improving fatigue symptoms
(19%) are the most important attributes when making a choice for
surgery (75% of the relative importance). Improving fertility (14%)
and the chance of getting a
temporary stoma (10%) have low
relative importance. Reducing endometriosis nodules/spots do not show a
significant effect.
