What are the treatments for endometriosis?
Currently, there is no cure for endometriosis. The different treatments available aim to reduce the severity of symptoms and improve the quality of life for a woman living with the condition.
The type of treatment should be decided in partnership between her and her healthcare professional. The decision about which treatment to choose should depend on several factors:
- The individual circumstances of the woman
- Her age
- The severity of her symptoms
- Her desire to have children
- The severity of the disease
The treatments currently available can help by relieving pain symptoms; shrinking or slowing endometriosis growth; preserving or restoring fertility; or preventing/delaying the recurrence of the disease.
