Endometriosis surgery is a specialized procedure designed to diagnose and treat endometriosis, a condition in which tissue similar to the uterine lining grows outside the uterus, causing pelvic pain, painful periods, infertility, and discomfort during intercourse. Surgery aims to remove or destroy endometrial lesions, release adhesions, and restore the normal anatomy of the reproductive organs. Laparoscopic surgery is commonly preferred because it involves smaller incisions, reduced postoperative discomfort, minimal scarring, and faster recovery.
Depending on the severity and location of the condition, the surgeon may perform excision or ablation of endometriotic tissue while preserving healthy reproductive organs whenever possible. Endometriosis surgery can help relieve symptoms, improve quality of life, and may enhance fertility in selected patients. Treatment planning is individualized based on the patient's symptoms, age, fertility goals, and disease severity. Proper postoperative care and regular follow-ups are essential for long-term management and monitoring.
