Genital bleeding during the DNG treatment and low rASRM stages are independent risk factors for DNG non-response. Before treatment initiation, primary dysmenorrhea and suspicion of adenomyosis correlate with DNG non-response. The results could assist the clinician first to provide detailed information to women before treatment initiation, second to identify and possibly modify in-therapy factors correlated to treatment effectiveness and lastly to switch treatment on time if needed.
