Metformin as an Adjunct to Progestin Therapy in Endometrial Hyperplasia and Early-Stage Endometrial Cancer: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials.

Background And Objective: Metformin has been studied for its anti-proliferative effects on endometrial cells, and it is hypothesized to have a synergistic effect with progestin therapy in suppressing endometrial cell proliferation. This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to determine the efficacy of adjunctive metformin in the clinical regression of endometrial hyperplasia and early-stage endometrial carcinoma. There have been previous systematic reviews that investigated the role of metformin with progesterone for endometrial hyperplasia and endometrial cancer, but they have included retrospective cohorts, and are thus have higher risk of bias.
