Postpartum Endometriosis after Cesarean Section

Patient's question:

After giving birth, every time I have my period, my stomach hurts. I've been treated in many places, but it hasn't been effective. The final diagnosis was endometriosis, a complication from a cesarean section. What should I do?
What kind of assistance is needed: Endometriosis after a cesarean section?

Doctor's answer:

In your case, it is very difficult to treat endometriosis. If it really cannot be helped, surgical treatment is generally more likely to result in incisional heterotopia. It is recommended that you eat less spicy food, quit smoking and drinking, and drink more water regularly. So, you can first try treatment with a Mirena device or progesterone for a period of time, and then combine traditional Chinese medicine for regulation. If it really cannot be helped, surgery may be necessary. Specific situations should be treated accordingly.
