Patient and public involvement
Patients were actively involved in the design of the study, through the Dutch Gynecologic Patient Organization (PGN: Patiëntenvereniging Gynaecologie Nederland), in which gynecologic patients are organized. This organization endorsed the importance of the research question and was involved in the design of the protocol, the choice of outcome measures, approved the final protocol, and expected the trial to be feasible. Once the trial has been published, participants will be informed about the results in collaboration with the patient organization.
