Management of patients receiving long-term treatment with mifepristone

Mifepristone can be administered for prolonged periods. Ultrasound should be performed if irregular vaginal bleeding occurs. In asymptomatic women, it should be performed annually. If endometrial thickening is observed, then endometrial biopsy is recommended. Because biochemical hypothyroidism has been reported during long-term mifepristone therapy, thyroid function tests should be performed annually.
