Patient's question:
A woman is 22 years old this year. I have also been treating this disease and taking medication, but it has not improved. I am very frustrated. I have tried many methods, but nothing has worked. Please ask: What are the possible complications of endometriosis?Doctor's answer:
Endometriosis complications are actually most commonly manifested as the rupture of endometriotic cysts, which often occur during the menstrual period. After the cysts rupture, they can even split and spread, leading to pelvic pain, manifestations of pelvic inflammation. This should be the most common manifestation. Of course, endometriosis in other specific areas may also occur, such as ureteral endometriosis, which can lead to upper ureteral obstruction or extension, hydronephrosis, and in very rare cases, affect kidney function. This can also occur, but it is relatively less common. So, as I mentioned earlier, the splitting, rupture, and spread of these cysts may be the more significant aspects.
