Endometriosis

Endometriosis

Description

A condition where tissue that normally lines the uterus starts to protrude outside of it. The tissue that is associated with endometriosis can be found on the ovaries, fallopian tubes, or intestines. Menstrual irregularities and pain are the most typical symptoms. There are effective treatments available, including hormone therapy and excision surgery.

Endometriosis is most likely caused by retrograde menstrual flow. The fallopian tube allows some of the tissue lost during the menstrual cycle to enter other parts of the body, including the pelvis. genetic influences. Endometriosis may be inherited in the genes because it runs in families. Endometriosis is a condition in which fragments of the uterine lining (endometrium) or tissue that resembles endometrium grow on other pelvic organs outside of the uterus. Similar to ordinary endometrial tissue, the tissue swells and bleeds outside the uterus during menstrual periods.

Treatments

Your physician will ask you to describe your symptoms, including the location of your pain and when it occurs, in order to diagnose endometriosis and other conditions that can cause pelvic pain.

Pelvic exam

Your doctor will physically feel (palpate) various parts of your pelvis during a pelvic exam to check for any abnormalities, such as cysts on your reproductive organs or scars behind your uterus. Small endometriotic regions are frequently difficult to feel until they have resulted in the formation of a cyst.

imaging using magnetic resonance

An MRI is a test that produces finely detailed images of your body's organs and tissues using a magnetic field and radio waves. Some people find that an MRI aids in surgical planning by providing your surgeon with specific details regarding the location and size of endometrial implants.

Ultrasound

High-frequency sound waves are employed in this examination to produce images of the interior of your body. A tool known as a transducer is either placed against your abdomen or introduced into your vagina to acquire the images (transvaginal ultrasound)

Laparoscopy

The position, scope, and dimensions of the endometrial implants can be determined via a laparoscopy. For additional testing, your surgeon can extract a tissue sample (biopsy). In many cases, your surgeon can completely treat endometriosis during the laparoscopy so that you only need one surgery with careful surgical planning.
