Patient's question:
My lower abdomen has been particularly itchy recently, and I often feel a stinging sensation in my lower abdomen. My discharge is also unusually heavy, and besides streaks of blood, it has a very strong odor. I often feel very weak.What kind of help I need: What are the treatments for endometriosis?
Doctor's answer:
Surgical treatment is the primary method for endometriosis, as it allows for the basic identification of lesion scope and nature under laparoscopic vision, yielding better results in pain relief and improving fertility. The course of treatment is relatively short, especially for severe cases with extensive fibrosis and dense adhesions where medication is ineffective. For larger ovarian endometriomas that do not respond to medication, surgery may preserve functional ovarian tissue. Surgical procedures can be categorized into three types: conservative surgery, semi-radical surgery, and radical surgery.
