Patient's question:
A woman is 22 years old this year. For a while, she felt very tired and went to the hospital for a check-up, only to find out that she had a disease. Please ask: What are the consequences of endometriosis?Doctor's answer:
Endometriosis, if not treated in a timely manner, can lead to serious consequences such as menstrual disorders, endocrine disorders, dyspareunia (pain during intercourse), dysmenorrhea (painful menstruation), and infertility. Moreover, if the ectopic endometrial tissue undergoes another shedding, it can stimulate surrounding tissues and increase the risk of cancer. It is recommended to seek early treatment. There are many treatment methods for this disease, but since the patient's condition varies, the treatment approach also differs. Therefore, it is necessary for patients to seek professional medical evaluation as soon as possible for a detailed examination and targeted treatment.
