Patient's question:
I am a 28-year-old female. A few days ago, I went to the hospital for a thorough examination. The doctor discovered that I have endometriosis. What is this disease? Why do I get this disease? What aspects should I pay attention to in daily life? Actually, I just want to consult the doctor on how to care for endometriosis.Doctor's answer:
The prevention of endometriosis in daily life mainly involves first preventing retrograde menstruation. If reproductive tract abnormalities cause retrograde menstruation, timely surgery is necessary. Pelvic examinations should not be performed during menstruation, and sexual activity should be avoided during this period. Additionally, it is important to prevent the occurrence of endometriosis caused by surgical procedures. Cervical or vaginal surgeries should be performed 3-7 days after menstruation has ended.
