Patient's question:
It's been so long since I got pregnant, the doctor said I have endometriosis.Doctor's answer:
Treatment can be achieved through medication or (and) surgery (conservative or radical). To date, apart from radical surgery, there is no ideal radical treatment available. Whether it is medication or conservative surgery, there is a relatively high recurrence rate. Therefore, the choice should be based on the patient's age, symptoms, signs, extent of the lesion, and fertility requirements, emphasizing individualized treatment. For mild symptoms or asymptomatic minor lesions, expectant treatment is chosen; for mild patients with fertility requirements, medication is given after a clear diagnosis; for severe cases, fertility-preserving surgery is performed; for young, non-fertility-seeking severe patients, ovarian function-preserving surgery can be performed with medication support; for patients with severe symptoms and lesions who do not have fertility requirements, radical surgery can be performed.
