Patient's question:
My menstrual cycle is always irregular, and I also suffer from menstrual cramps. Especially on the first day of my period, I have to stay in bed and rest. Painkillers don't seem to help at all. During sexual activity, I also experience pain. After a thorough examination at the hospital, I was diagnosed with endometriosis.What kind of assistance is needed: What are the treatment methods for endometriosis?
Doctor's answer:
Endometriosis is a condition where the endometrium, the lining of the uterus, grows outside the uterus, such as in the pelvis, peritoneum, ovaries, etc. The main symptom is progressive dysmenorrhea. It is recommended that individuals with endometriosis take short-term birth control pills or progesterone treatment, or consume Guizhi Fuling capsules for treatment. It is advised to visit a hospital for examination and actively seek treatment. Pay attention to vulvar hygiene and change underwear frequently.
