Patient's question:
Hello, I have endometriosis. I would like to ask if taking medication can cure it. I am 30 years old and have already given birth. My menstrual period lasts 3 to 5 days, with the second day being the longest. I experience menstrual pain, with the most severe pain lasting about 10 minutes. I do not have constipation or frequent urination, but I do have a sensation of rectal fullness. Intercourse is not very painful, but I do have lower back and waist pain. My uterus is in an anterior position, with dimensions of 67MM37MM54MM.Doctor's answer:
Your condition may be caused by cold deficiency, leading to menstrual cramps. During the menstrual period and its surrounding days, pain in the lower abdomen or lower back may occur, sometimes even extending to the lumbar-sacral region. The pain recurs with each menstrual cycle. In severe cases, it may be accompanied by nausea, vomiting, profuse cold sweat, cold hands and feet, or even fainting.Consider treatments such as acupuncture, physiotherapy, and massage. Endometriosis not only affects a woman's quality of life but can also lead to gynecological diseases. Therefore, it is best to visit a gynecological department in the hospital for a vaginal examination to identify the cause and receive targeted treatment. Additionally, pay attention to personal hygiene and maintain cleanliness in the perineal area.
