Patient's question:
Approximately one year ago, I experienced pain on both sides of the lower abdomen. I have taken medication for it. Here is the history and effectiveness of previous treatments: I didn't pay much attention to it. The help I need: I just want to ask how to treat it.Doctor's answer:
Endometriosis occurs due to poor menstrual flow, where many fragments of the endometrium travel through the fallopian tubes and flow back to other tissues with the menstrual blood. Although these endometrial fragments are shed, they do not lose their vitality. Therefore, upon reaching other tissues, they implant and grow, much like seeds being scattered. They are also regulated by the endocrine system, undergoing cyclic growth, shedding, and erosion. Since there are no shortcuts for bleeding, the blood gradually accumulates locally, forming endometrial nodules or cysts. If gynecological conditions do not improve with treatment, it is important to promptly adjust the treatment plan.
