Doctor's answer:

Endometriosis is the condition where the endometrium grows outside the uterus. Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) believes it is related to blood stasis obstructing menstruation, qi stagnation, coldness in the uterus, weakness of the liver and kidneys, spleen deficiency, blood deficiency, damp-heat, and turbid phlegm, among other factors. It is recommended to visit a regular hospital for examination and diagnosis, followed by treatment targeting the root cause. Alternatively, you can consult an experienced TCM practitioner for syndrome differentiation and herbal treatment. Medications such as Xuefu Zhuyu Pills and Shenghua Granules may also be used.
The occurrence of gynecological diseases not only affects women's health but can also lead to further gynecological issues. Therefore, it is best to undergo a gynecological examination at a hospital to identify the cause and receive symptomatic treatment. Additionally, pay attention to personal hygiene and maintain cleanliness in the perineal area.
