Laparoscopic Surgery for Endometriosis

What is Endometriosis?

Endometriosis happens when tissue that lines your uterus also grows outside your uterus. These growths often attach to the ovaries or other organs, and they may bleed during your period and cause pain. They may also make it for you to get pregnant.

Endometriosis can be treated with medicines or with surgery.

When our Doctors can suggest laparoscopic surgery?

View the internal organs to look for signs of endometriosis and other possible problems. This is the only way that endometriosis can be diagnosed with certainty. But a "no endometriosis" diagnosis is never certain.
Growths (implants) can be tiny or hidden from the surgeon's view.

Remove any visible endometriosis implants and scar tissue that may be causing pain or infertility.
If an endometriosis cyst is found growing on an ovary (endometrioma), it is likely to be removed..

Infertility

If infertility is your primary concern, your doctor will probably use laparoscopy to look for and remove signs of endometriosis.

• Research has not firmly proved that removing mild endometriosis improves fertility.
• For moderate to severe endometriosis, surgery will improve your chances of pregnancy.
• In some severe cases, a fertility specialist will recommend skipping surgical removal and using in vitro fertilization.
