Treatment depends on your desire for children in the future, your symptoms, age, and reproductive history. Our endometriosis specialist team in San Antonio will devise an individualize treatment plan for you. Some of the options for controlling pain are:
- Nerve ablation
- Laparotomy
- Hormonal birth control
- Laparoscopy
Both medication and surgery help manage endometriosis. However, your treatment plan primarily depends on the location, extent of pain, and your desire to have children. In general, surgery is usually reserved for patients who are resistant to treatment or those who have severe chronic pain.
