The so-called endometriosis refers to the phenomenon where the endometrium growing on the uterine wall is not placed in its normal place of residence, but instead moves to other places for placement. If the endometrium lives elsewhere, it can cause great harm to the female body, which can also affect the patient's sexual life.
What should I do if endometriosis affects sexual activity?
The influence of endometrium on sexual activity is caused by the involvement of the lesion during sexual activity. As the number of sexual intercourse increases, the number of painful sexual intercourse also increases. The greater the extent of sexual intercourse, the more severe the pain becomes, and some may even experience unbearable pain. Pain occurs every time sexual activity occurs, which is very painful for women and sexual partners. Over time, it has a significant impact on the psychological and emotional well-being of patients and can also affect the relationship between spouses.
The current radical cure for sexual pain caused by endometriosis is to completely remove the odorous endometrium. There are various methods for treating endometriosis, including traditional Chinese medicine, Western medicine, and surgical treatment. For patients with severe sexual pain, in order to prevent a vicious cycle from causing sexual activity, it is necessary to avoid sexual activity during treatment.
How to treat endometriosis?
1、 Pseudomenopausal therapy. This method involves using estrogen drugs to stop ovarian ovulation, reduce hormone levels, and ultimately cause endometrial atrophy and absorption. This method has significant side effects and patients need to use it under the guidance of a doctor.
2、 Surgical treatment. According to the scope of surgery, it can be divided into three types: preserving reproductive function, preserving ovarian function, and radical surgery. Patients can choose the corresponding surgery according to their own situation.
3、 Sexual hormone therapy. During pregnancy, dysmenorrhea and menstrual blood reflux can be avoided, which can cause atrophy and degeneration of endometriosis. Therefore, the use of sex hormone therapy in clinical treatment of endometriosis is also high. Supplementing a large amount of sex hormones can improve the hormone levels in the patient's body, create a physical condition during pregnancy, and treat endometriosis through pregnancy.
4、 Semi conservative treatment. This surgery mainly involves removing the patient's uterus and endometriosis lesions, and is suitable for patients under the age of 45 who do not have any reproductive needs.
It should be noted that if the symptoms of endometriosis are mild, patients can use medication to control their condition. However, if it is a patient with severe endometriosis, surgical treatment measures can be taken if necessary.
