Endometriosis?

Patient's question:

I have endometriosis of the abdominal wall. What is this situation? I'm so scared, is it a miscarriage!

Doctor's answer:

Treatment of Endometriosis:
1. Medication:
- Ovarian suppression drugs such as Danazol, Norethisterone, Gossypol, and agonists of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GNRH).
- Pseudopregnancy drugs such as Funing Pian (Megestrol), Fuke Pian (Norethisterone), and Puvwela (Progesterone).
- For severe pain, medications like Flurbiprofen, Indomethacin, Advil, and Keferan can be used.
2. Surgical Treatment:
- There are two types of surgical treatment: conservative surgery and radical surgery.
- Young patients or those who still need to preserve fertility can undergo conservative surgery, such as cystectomy and lesion resection.
- For those who no longer wish to have children, total hysterectomy and lesion resection can be performed, while preserving one or both ovaries. Postoperative medication can help reduce recurrence rates.
- Women near menopause may undergo radical surgery, including total hysterectomy, bilateral oophorectomy, salpingectomy, and lesion resection, to prevent recurrence.
