Endometriosis is categorized on OnlineMedicalTourism.com as within the class of procedures known as Obstetrics/Gynecology. .
Endometriosis (click for worldwide facilities list): Endometriosis is a disorder of the female reproductive system. In endometriosis, the endometrium, which normally lines your uterus, grows in other places as well. Most often, this growth is on your fallopian tubes, ovaries or the tissue lining your pelvis.

When endometrial tissue is located elsewhere in your body, it continues to act as it normally would during a menstrual cycle: It thickens, breaks down and bleeds each month. Because there's nowhere for the blood from this displaced tissue to exit your body, it becomes trapped, with surrounding tissue becoming irritated. Trapped blood may lead to cysts, scar tissue and adhesions, abnormal tissue that binds organs together. This process can cause pelvic pain, especially during your period. Endometriosis also can cause fertility problems.

Treatment for endometriosis is usually with medications or surgery. The approach you and your doctor choose depends on the severity of your signs and symptoms and whether you hope to become pregnant. Generally, doctors recommend trying conservative treatment approaches first, opting for surgery as a last resort.

Hormonal therapies used to treat endometriosis include: hormonal contraceptives, Gonadotropin-releasing hormone (Gn-RH) agonists and antagonists, Danazo, Medroxyprogesterone (Depo-Provera), Aromatase inhibitors. Hormonal therapies aren't a permanent fix for endometriosis. It's possible that you could experience a recurrence of your symptoms after stopping treatment. If you have endometriosis and are trying to become pregnant, surgery to remove implants may increase your chances of success. If you have severe pain from endometriosis, you may also benefit from surgery. Conservative surgery removes endometrial growths, scar tissue and adhesions without removing your reproductive organs. In severe cases of endometriosis, a total hysterectomy and the removal of both ovaries may be the best treatment.
