What are the treatment methods for endometriosis?

Patient's question:

I have been married to my husband for a year, and we haven't had any children yet. I usually experience menstrual cramps when I have my period, and my periods are often irregular. After a thorough examination at the hospital, they said I have endometriosis. Hello, what are the treatment methods for endometriosis?

Doctor's answer:

Endometriosis primarily involves the implantation of endometrial tissue in other locations, such as the pelvic area, which can lead to secondary dysmenorrhea, especially progressively worsening dysmenorrhea. The main treatment methods for this condition include conservative medical treatment and surgical treatment. For example, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) can be taken, and an intrauterine device (IUD) can be inserted. In severe cases, surgical treatment such as laparoscopy may be required.
