Overview

What is Endometriosis?

Endometriosis is a chronic gynecological condition where tissue similar to the uterine lining grows outside the uterus, leading to severe pelvic pain, heavy menstrual bleeding, and fertility issues. The misplaced tissue responds to hormonal changes, causing inflammation, scarring, and adhesions.

At Dr. KM Cherian Institute of Medical Sciences, we offer the best adenomyosis treatment in Kerala and advanced, minimally invasive therapies for endometriosis. These treatments ensure adequate pain relief and improved reproductive health.

Symptoms

  • Severe menstrual cramps (dysmenorrhea)
  • Chronic pelvic pain
  • Pain during or after intercourse
  • Heavy or irregular menstrual bleeding
  • Bloating and digestive discomfort
  • Difficulty conceiving (infertility)

Symptoms can vary in intensity and are often mistaken for other conditions, delaying diagnosis.

Causes & Risk Factors

The exact cause of endometriosis is unknown, but contributing factors include:

  • Retrograde Menstruation – Menstrual blood flows backward into the pelvis instead of exiting the body.
  • Hormonal Imbalances – Estrogen may stimulate abnormal tissue growth.
  • Family History – Higher risk if close relatives have endometriosis.
  • Immune System Dysfunction – May prevent the body from clearing abnormal tissue growth.

Treatments

At Dr. KM Cherian Institute of Medical Sciences, we provide personalized treatment plans based on the severity of symptoms and a patient’s reproductive goals.

Medications for Symptom Control

  • Hormonal therapy (oral contraceptives, IUDs, or GnRH agonists) to reduce pain and bleeding.
  • Pain relievers (NSAIDs) for managing cramps and pelvic discomfort.

Minimally Invasive & Surgical Treatments

  • Laparoscopic Excision Surgery – A minimally invasive procedure to remove endometriotic tissue.
  • Endometrial Ablation – Reduces menstrual flow by treating the uterine lining.
  • Hysterectomy (in severe cases) – Complete removal of the uterus for long-term relief.

We use cutting-edge laparoscopic and robotic-assisted techniques, ensuring faster recovery and minimal scarring.
