Endometriosis and Microvascular Dysfunction; Simvastatin and Duavee

Mechanisms and Interventions Addressing Accelerated Cardiovascular Disease Risk in Women With Endometriosis

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 27 Jul 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

Purpose: To determine the effects of SERM and simvastatin interventions on endothelial dysfunction in women with endometriosis. Hypothesis: Treatment with the SERM (bazedoxifene + conjugated estrogen) or with simvastatin will decrease systemic inflammation and improve specific measures of cardiovascular function including endothelium-dependent vasodilation.
