Patient's question:
Where are the professional hospitals for treating endometriosis? I often have abdominal pain during menstruation. My friend said it might be endometriosis. What are the symptoms of endometriosis?Doctor's answer:
Endometriosis is most commonly characterized by pain during menstruation, with approximately one-third of patients experiencing varying degrees of menstrual pain. Some patients may develop localized pelvic pain due to compression of the intestines, bladder, or nerves, or may complain of discomfort during intercourse, especially those whose cervix or vagina is affected, who may experience pain during intercourse, constipation, and pain during bowel movements. Based on your description, it is possible that you may have endometriosis. It is best to visit a hospital for examination. There is no need to worry too much, as it can sometimes resolve on its own. Treatment options include rigorous treatment, surgical treatment (including open surgery and laparoscopic surgery), and the specific approach should be determined based on your condition. Wishing you good health.
