What is endometriosis?
Endometriosis is a condition where tissue similar to the lining of the uterus grows outside it, causing pain, painful periods and sometimes fertility difficulties. It's often under-diagnosed for years. Dr Manavita Mahajan provides expert endometriosis treatment in Gurgaon, combining accurate diagnosis with effective, individualised care.
Symptoms to watch for
- Painful, heavy periods
- Chronic pelvic pain
- Pain during intercourse
- Difficulty conceiving
- Ovarian "chocolate" cysts (endometriomas)
Diagnosis & treatment
Diagnosis may involve examination, ultrasound and, where needed, diagnostic laparoscopy — which also allows treatment in the same procedure. Management is tailored to your symptoms and fertility plans, and may include medical (hormonal) therapy for pain and laparoscopic surgery to remove endometriosis and cysts.
Severe period pain is not something you simply have to live with. Effective treatment is available.
Endometriosis and fertility
Because endometriosis can affect fertility, Dr Mahajan takes an integrated approach — treating pain while protecting and supporting your chances of conceiving.
