Patient's question:
I only got endometriosis this year, and I'm only 21. What should I do? Do I still need to take medication? Is the recurrence rate high? So I'm very anxious. Is there a way to treat this disease?Doctor's answer:
Endometriosis, mainly characterized by severe menstrual cramps, abdominal discomfort, irregular menstruation, and many other symptoms, is a relatively common gynecological disease. It's advisable to have regular check-ups. If the symptoms are significant, medication can be used for a period of time to manage them. If the symptoms improve, that's good. If they don't, surgical intervention may need to be considered. Since you're not yet at an advanced age and are planning to get pregnant, you might want to consider trying to conceive first.
