Treatment of endometriosis

Endometriosis is one of the most common and, at the same time, one of the most insidious gynecological conditions. It develops when tissue similar to the endometrium begins to grow outside the uterine cavity. This can lead to chronic pain, menstrual cycle disturbances, and difficulties with conception.

Dr. Irina Ergül offers a comprehensive approach to the diagnosis and treatment of endometriosis, taking into account the individual characteristics of each patient. The main goal is not only to reduce symptoms but also to stabilize the condition and preserve reproductive health.

Symptoms of Endometriosis

In the early stages, the disease may be almost asymptomatic, but over time the symptoms tend to intensify. It is recommended to consult a doctor if the following signs are present:

• severe pain during menstruation
• pulling or aching pain in the lower abdomen outside the menstrual cycle
• irregular or excessively heavy periods
• pain during sexual intercourse
• pelvic discomfort
• difficulty becoming pregnant

Even if the symptoms are mild, it is important to undergo an examination, as endometriosis tends to progress over time.

How Diagnosis Is Performed

During the initial consultation, Dr. Irina Ergül places special emphasis on a detailed conversation with the patient in order to identify all possible manifestations of the condition.

Diagnosis may include:

• gynecological examination
• pelvic ultrasound
• assessment of hormonal levels
• additional methods when indicated

This approach makes it possible to determine the form and stage of endometriosis and choose the most appropriate treatment strategy.

Modern Treatment Methods

Endometriosis requires a systematic and well-planned approach. Depending on the clinical picture, the doctor develops an individualized treatment program.

Medication therapy

Modern hormonal medications are used to reduce the activity of endometriotic lesions and alleviate pain symptoms.

Symptom control

Anti-inflammatory and pain-relief medications may be prescribed to improve quality of life already in the early stages of treatment.

Support during pregnancy planning

If necessary, a strategy is developed to preserve and restore fertility.

Ongoing monitoring

Regular follow-up allows timely adjustment of treatment and helps prevent relapses.
