4 Current Treatment options

Hormonal Therapy
Hormonal therapy involves using medications such as birth control pills, gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) agonists, and progestin therapy to reduce the production of hormones that can promote the growth of endometrial tissue.
Surgery
Surgery is often used to remove endometrial implants and scar tissue that has built up due to endometriosis. Laparoscopy is a minimally invasive procedure that can be used to diagnose and treat endometriosis.

Pain medications, such as nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) or opioids, can be used to reduce the pain caused by endometriosis.

Complementary and alternative therapies, such as acupuncture, yoga, and supplements for endometriosis, may also help reduce pain and other symptoms associated with endometriosis.
