Patient's question:
How is endometriosis treated? Would it interfere with fertility if left untreated? Is it easy to cause ectopic pregnancy?Doctor's answer:
Endometriosis can interfere with fertility. If pregnancy occurs, it is not easy to cause ectopic pregnancy. The greatest suffering for patients with endometriosis is dysmenorrhea, although a very small number of patients do not experience it. Currently, the best treatment method in Western medicine is surgical removal of the ectopic lesions. In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), Western methods are used to suppress menstruation, and herbal medicine is taken to eliminate the ectopic lesions. In addition to taking medication to treat gynecological diseases, patients also need to pay attention to nursing care, such as maintaining a light diet and engaging in regular outdoor activities. At the same time, patients should also pay attention to choosing a reputable hospital for diagnosis, so that they can obtain good treatment results.
