Treatment for Endometriosis(3)

 

 

Although radiotherapy has been used for endometriosis for many years, it has achieved a significant curative effect by using many kinds of drugs and operations and generally does not damage the ovarian function. The function of radiotherapy for endometriosis is to destroy the ovarian tissue, so as to eliminate the influence of ovarian hormones, make the endometrium atrophic, and achieve the purpose of treatment.

 

Radiation has no obvious effect on the destruction of ectopic endometrium, but it can not tolerate hormone treatment and because the focus is located in the intestine, urinary tract, and extensive pelvic adhesion, especially with serious diseases such as heart, lung or kidney.

 

Even if some patients receive radiotherapy, they must be diagnosed clearly first, especially the malignant ovarian tumor can not be misdiagnosed as an endometrial cyst in case of the wrong treatment.

 

 

Pregnancy is not only the main treatment goal for young patients but also the best treatment for endometriosis. Hormone inhibition could not increase the pregnancy rate. In order to change the environment of the pelvic cavity, we should check the tubal fluid under the laparoscope as early as possible, or resect or electrocoagulation the slight lesions under the microscope, so as to get pregnant as soon as possible.
