How is endometriosis treated?

Patient's question:

During menstruation, I experience stomach pain, but the pain disappears after the period ends. I don't usually have stomach problems outside of my menstrual cycle. About the past treatment and its effectiveness: The doctor prescribed medication, but I want to know if it's difficult to treat. What kind of assistance I need: I hope an experienced doctor can tell me if it's difficult to treat and how to treat it.

Doctor's answer:

Endometriosis is a benign inflammatory condition caused by the infiltration of the endometrium into the uterine muscle layer. The main manifestations of this disease are dysmenorrhea and menstrual disorders. Dysmenorrhea is the most typical symptom of this condition, usually secondary. The traditional treatment approach for this disease is based on alleviating symptoms and assisting conception. Currently, there are methods available to treat endometriosis. The efficacy is significant, with relief from dysmenorrhea and a reduction in menstrual volume.
