Patient's question:
Doctor, a friend of mine has endometriosis. Hello, what should I pay attention to in the early stages of pregnancy with endometriosis?Doctor's answer:
Endometriosis refers to the condition where the endometrium, which normally lines the uterus, grows in other parts of the body, leading to significant pain and bleeding during menstruation. If individuals with this condition become pregnant again, they should be cautious of minimal bleeding or a higher risk of premature delivery. In addition to regular ultrasound check-ups during the early stages of pregnancy, necessary treatments to support the pregnancy, such as taking folic acid orally, should be administered. It is crucial to avoid sexual activity for three months.
