Endometriosis is a common gynaecological condition characterized by the presence of endometrial-like tissue outside the uterus, often leading to pelvic pain and infertility. Understanding the causes, symptoms, and treatment options for endometriosis is essential for patients seeking comprehensive care. At Aashakiran IVF, led by Dr. Asmita Mahla, specialized expertise and personalized treatment approaches are available to address endometriosis and its impact on fertility.
Understanding Endometriosis: Endometriosis occurs when tissue similar to the lining of the uterus (endometrium) grows outside the uterus, commonly on the ovaries, fallopian tubes, and pelvic lining. This tissue responds to hormonal fluctuations, leading to inflammation, scar tissue formation, and the development of adhesions. Endometriosis can cause symptoms such as pelvic pain, painful menstruation (dysmenorrhea), pain during intercourse, and infertility.
Diagnosis and Evaluation: Diagnosing endometriosis often involves a combination of medical history review, pelvic examination, imaging studies (such as ultrasound or MRI), and laparoscopic surgery—a minimally invasive procedure to visualize and confirm the presence of endometrial implants. At Aashakiran IVF, accurate diagnosis and evaluation are prioritized to guide personalized treatment plans.
Treatment Options: The management of endometriosis aims to alleviate symptoms, preserve fertility, and improve quality of life. Treatment options may include:
- Medication: Pain relievers, hormonal medications (such as birth control pills or gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonists), and aromatase inhibitors may be prescribed to manage symptoms and reduce disease progression.
- Surgical Intervention: Laparoscopic surgery may be recommended to remove endometrial implants, adhesions, and cysts, thereby relieving symptoms and improving fertility outcomes.
- Fertility Treatment: For individuals struggling with infertility due to endometriosis, fertility treatments such as in vitro fertilization (IVF) may be recommended to bypass affected reproductive organs and achieve pregnancy.
