Patient's question:
I got married last year. Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I'm very worried it might affect fertility, and I'm also extremely sensitive to cold and coldness. Could you please tell me what symptoms endometriosis might have? What symptoms does endometriosis have?Doctor's answer:
Endometriosis has two Western medical treatment methods: surgery and medication.First, medication treatment, primarily involving oral hormones, such as pseudopregnancy and pseudomenopause therapy. This involves artificially inducing amenorrhea and menopause, which can lead to many side effects, including damage to liver and kidney function. Additionally, once the medication is stopped, the recurrence rate is very high, and it can also cause a rebound effect. For example, with menstrual pain, it might become worse after stopping the medication, while ovarian cysts may grow even faster than before treatment.
Second, surgical treatment, which includes aggressive treatment, partial remission treatment, and complete remission treatment. Aggressive treatment aims to preserve fertility by only removing the endometriotic lesions and nodules, restoring the normal anatomical and physiological functions of the patient's body, allowing them to conceive.
