Endometriosis Treatment Guidelines

Endometriosis treatment guidelines focus on managing pain and reducing the growth of endometrial tissue outside the uterus. Options include pain medications like NSAIDs, hormonal therapies such as birth control pills or GnRH agonists to suppress menstruation and tissue growth, and surgery to remove endometrial implants. Treatment plans are personalized based on symptom severity, age, fertility goals, and overall health. Lifestyle changes, including diet and stress management, may also help. The goal is to improve quality of life, preserve fertility when possible, and minimize disease progression through a combination of medical and surgical options tailored to each individual.
