Our team of experienced gynecologists provides comprehensive and personalized treatment plans to manage symptoms and improve quality of life.
Understanding Endometriosis
Endometriosis affects millions of women worldwide, commonly involving the ovaries, fallopian tubes, and the tissue lining the pelvis. Rarely, endometrial-like tissue may spread beyond the pelvic organs.
Symptoms of Endometriosis
- Pelvic Pain: Chronic pelvic pain, often associated with menstrual periods.
- Dysmenorrhea: Painful periods with cramping that may begin before and extend several days into the menstrual cycle.
- Dyspareunia: Pain during or after sexual intercourse.
- Pain with Bowel Movements or Urination: Typically experienced during menstrual periods.
Diagnostic Procedures
- Pelvic Examination: To check for abnormalities such as cysts or scars.
- Ultrasound: Imaging tests to identify cysts associated with endometriosis.
- MRI: Detailed imaging to determine the extent and location of endometriosis.
- Laparoscopy: A minimally invasive surgical procedure where a camera is inserted into the pelvic cavity to visualize and biopsy endometrial tissue.
