Patient's question:
Please help the doctor answer how to treat endometriosis. I hope the expert can provide a detailed answer. Thank you.Doctor's answer:
Endometriosis has two Western medical treatment methods: surgery and medication. First, medication treatment, primarily oral hormones, such as pseudopregnancy and pseudomenopause therapy, which artificially induces menopause. This can lead to some side effects, causing damage to liver and kidney functions. Second, surgical treatment, which includes conservative treatment, semi treatment, and radical treatment. Conservative treatment preserves fertility by only removing the endometriosis lesions, restoring the normal anatomical and physiological functions of the body, allowing patients to conceive. Semi surgical treatment involves removing the uterus, one ovary, and all pelvic endometriosis lesions.
