Patient's question:
From a young age, I experienced menstrual cramps. Now, after being married for three years, I still haven't successfully conceived. Tests revealed endometriosis. Is this condition treatable? What is the best way to treat endometriosis?Doctor's answer:
Surgery is the primary method for treating endometriosis because it can essentially clarify the scope and nature of the lesions under laparoscopic visualization. It is highly effective in alleviating pain and improving fertility, with a relatively short treatment duration. This is particularly beneficial for severe cases with extensive fibrosis and dense adhesions where medication may be ineffective. For larger ovarian endometriomas that do not respond to medication, surgery may help preserve functional ovarian tissue.In addition to symptomatic treatment during gynecological disease management, a patient's dietary condition and psychological state are also crucial. It is essential to prevent excessive mental stress and anxiety to avoid unnecessary impacts on the comprehensive recovery from gynecological conditions.
