Patient's question:
I accidentally got pregnant last year without planning to have a baby. At that time, I went to the hospital for a thorough examination, and the doctor said it was an ectopic pregnancy. I then had surgery to terminate it. This year, I started to notice occasional abdominal pain, so I went to the hospital for a thorough examination. The doctor said it was endometriosis. What medicine should I take?Doctor's answer:
Confirming that abdominal pain is caused by endometriosis, pay attention to the fact that endometriosis is primarily related to the menstrual cycle. Pain in the abdomen may occur during menstruation. Treatment can initially involve hormone-based medications to create a pseudomenopause, which can alleviate abdominal pain symptoms. Alternatively, direct blood-activating medications can be used. For those who are not pregnant, surgical removal of the uterus is recommended. Endometriosis is difficult to recover from, and it is largely related to your surgery. Gynecological diseases are not easily fully cured. Friends who suffer from this condition should always maintain an optimistic attitude and face it with a positive mindset. Only in this way can they enhance their confidence in combating gynecological diseases and believe that recovery is definitely achievable.
