Endometriosis can cause severe pain, especially during menstrual periods, which may interfere with daily life. Common symptoms include:

• Intense menstrual cramps
• Heavy periods
• Chronic pelvic pain
• Pain during urination or bowel movements
• Painful intercourse
• Nausea and vomiting

Symptoms often worsen as the condition progresses, but some women with advanced endometriosis may have minimal or no discomfort. Regular pelvic exams are crucial for early diagnosis and management.

Hormonal treatments can help slow the growth of endometrial tissue, but these are usually temporary solutions and may not be suitable for women trying to conceive.

Surgical intervention is often the most effective way to address endometriosis. Dr. Aldabbagh specializes in advanced laparoscopic surgery, a minimally invasive procedure that removes endometrial tissue with less recovery time and fewer risks than traditional surgery.

Endometriosis can sometimes lead to infertility. However, many women with this condition are still able to conceive. Surgery to remove excess tissue often improves fertility and increases the chances of a successful pregnancy.
