Hello. I have been diagnosed of endometriosis 6 yrs ago.. The dr recommend althea pills for first 6 months at first it was ok. I have no periods fo 6 mos.. After that i have period and it was ok. After a year the pain occurs agains.. Is there any ways to cure endometriosis without surgergy. By the way i am 48yrs old now..
First of all it's sad to know what you had been going through lately. Based on the history you have shared, at age of 48 the period's irregularities may be due to perimenopausal symptoms however endometriosis may have lead to early onset of symptoms. Hormonal profile may be helpful alongwith fresh ultrasound pelvis.
For other symptoms, OTC analgesics like acetaminophen can be helpful. Anti spasmodic like drotavarine may also be needed. If not helpful, surgical intervention may be unavoidable.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Saddiq Ulabidin, General & Family Physician
