How Can Endometriosis And Vaginal Bleeding Be Treated?

Hello,
Endometriosis usually treated initially with progestin therapy. Continues administration leads to anovulatory, hypoestrogenic state by depressing GnRH release.
Treatment of few months causes atrophy and regression of ectopic mass. Initial treatment is followed by cyclic Estrogen and Progestin therapy for 3 to 6 months.
To start treatment you have to take the advice of a gynecologist as these are prescription drugs.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Hiren Hirpara
