Endometriosis is a complex GYN condition that requires advanced laparoscopic management. Patient with endometriosis, may have painful and heavy menses, awful contractions, and might not even enjoy sex anymore because it’s so uncomfortable. With this condition, parts of the endometrium that are shed during period, become close to organs like your ovaries and fallopian tubes.

- Pain with bowel movements
- Pain with sexual intercourse
- Low back pain

If treated imperfectly, endometriosis can deteriorate, possibly causing more pain and additional harm to be surrounding organs. So, need to consult thoroughly by the specialists, and is weighed against each patient’s goals for fertility.

Endometriosis surgery aims to reduce endometriosis-associated pain by removing all visible endometriosis and any associated adhesions.
