Treatment of endometriosis
Unfortunately, endometriosis is an incurable condition. However, symptomatic treatment may provide adequate relief to the affected individual. Medications like analgesics may be prescribed to individuals, who experience excruciating pain. Hormonal treatment in the form of progesterone or oral contraceptives may be advised to prevent further growth of endometrial tissue on surface of other organs.
Surgical intervention is the last resort but may be required in severe cases. In women, who are planning their family, a surgical procedure may be done to remove the endometrial tissue from the surface of pelvic organs but preserving the integrity of ovaries. However, it is advisable to perform total hysterectomy (removal of uterus along with fallopian tubes and ovaries) in women who have completed their family.
