Patient's question:
My cousin is 28 years old this year and hasn't had children yet. She suffers from severe menstrual cramps. During each menstrual period, she has to take several days off work and needs to take pain relievers. The doctor has confirmed that she has endometriosis. How is endometriosis treated?Doctor's answer:
When endometrial tissue reappears in places other than the uterine body, it is called endometriosis. The ectopic endometrium can affect any part of the body, but the majority is located in pelvic organs and the peritoneum. It is recommended to improve ultrasound examinations and blood CA125 tests. If there is no formation of ovarian cysts and your family has not yet conceived, medication can be considered, such as anestrogenic gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonists, and I hope my explanation can help you.
