Endometriosis Supportive Therapy
David Letsa, MD
Endometriosis is a long-lasting condition in which tissue similar to the lining of the uterus grows outside of it. It mainly affects women of reproductive age and can cause severe pain, difficulties getting pregnant, and significant daily challenges. Understandably, living with endometriosis can present unique challenges, but it’s essential to know that there are many ways to find relief and improve your quality of life.
Endometriosis treatments include medications like NSAIDs, hormone therapy, and surgery (such as laparoscopy). Medications are often used first, followed by surgery if necessary. In addition to surgery, supportive therapies can help manage symptoms without the need for surgery.
