The objective of this paper was to assess the effectiveness of the pioglitazone on endometriosis in rats. The study was performed on 24 Wistar rats. Endometriosis induction was performed in 24 rats, which were divided into three groups: group I (model group); and group II, the treatment group, comprising the other 12 rats. After 3 months, pioglitazone was performed in all animals. Pioglitazone treatment seems to be effective in treatment of endometriosis.
