Patient's question:
Four and a half years after cesarean section, a 2cm×2cm lump at the incision site, reduced menstrual flow for nearly a year, experienced two episodes of incision pain during menstruation. The doctor diagnosed it as abdominal wall endometriosis and recommended surgery. What kind of assistance is needed: What is abdominal wall endometriosis?Doctor's answer:
It's when the endometrium grows into the incision during surgery, and it recurs as a lump with pain each time during menstruation. It can also be considered for surgical removal without regular follow-ups. If the menstrual flow is not enough to cover a sanitary pad, an ultrasound should be performed for a thorough check. On the third to fourth day of the menstrual cycle, hormone six and thyroid function tests should be conducted. Endometriosis changes with the menstrual cycle, and an ultrasound can confirm it.
