Hi. I’ve been recently diagnosed with endometreosis. My dr told me that it is incurable which made me really anxious… Is it true?? If not, then what is the best treatment for endometreosis? Please help – I’m really worried!!!!

Well, I’m sorry to hear all that but I have to agree with your doctor. Unfortunately, at this point there is no cure for endometreosis. But, fortunately, there are many treatments that can help you deal with it. But, before you choose any of those, you must have a good relationship with your doctor – decision must be made by both of you. I will only mention these treatments – talk with your doctor about each one and together with him decide the best solution for you. Treatments are: pain medication, hormone treatment and surgery (really the last option). I hope this helps. Good luck!

I found out in 2005 that I have endometreosis and then a month later my sister who had no symptoms found out she has it too. This disease isn't fun. I went thru treatment called Lupron. I was given a shot of 13.25mg of Lupron then three months later came back and got another shot. I'm not sure I'd recommend the shot (lupron) the side effects are pretty messed up, but if you're strong willed like myself then you can get thru anything. Keep your stress level down, maintain a healthy diet and exercise routine. I've been introduced to many women that have it or know or someone who has it. Let all your girl friends know, they might laugh and say I don't have those symptoms...but it could still affect them later in life.

Do not take hormones to cure it. See a specialist there are only 5 in the U.S. I seen Dr. Kanayama in New York he believes in effectively cutting the endo out and curing his patients.

UNFORTUNATELY I HAVE BEEN DIAGNOSED AS WELL WITH ENDOMETREOSIS AND ITS SAD TO SAY THERE IS NO CURE. IM 22 AND I HAVE NO KIDS BUT IM BEING TOLD BY MY DOCTOR THE LONGER I WAIT THE HARDER ITS GOING TO BE. I WAS TOLD BIRTH CONTROL PILLS WILL CONTROL THE PAIN, AND LUPRON WILL TOO. I TRIED LUPRON AND IT DEFINATELY HELPED WITH THE PAIN BUT I BECAME EVIL AND UNPLEASANT TO BE AROUND I WAS MOODY AND WOULD CRY FOR NO REASON. LUPRON MESSES WITH YOU HORMONES REALLY BAD IM ON MY WAY TO TYRING THE PILL TO SEE HOW IT WILL WORK.
I ALSO WAS TOLD THAT HAVING A CHILD WILL HELP THE PAIN A WHOLE LOT BUT BECAUSE IM YOUNG AND HAVEN'T HAD A CHILD YET HYSTERECTOMY IS NOT AN OPTION SO I WISH YOU THE BEST OF LUCK BECAUSE IT S TAKIN ME THRU SOME LOOPS

Lupron is not the answer...... hysterectomies do not get rid of endometriosis........ there is a technique that very few doctors in the united states do... which is cutting the endometriosis from the root. The best doctor with an amazing office manager (sabrina) who can help guide you on insurance and there number is 212-421-1016.

I'm not sure what Sabrina you got, but the Sabrina that I worked with was rude, insensitive, and her miscommunication with insurance led to us footing the entire $19,000 bill!

I have had endo for 12 years, already have had 3 lap's for it, done lupron, still no kids, birth control pills didn't react well cause my hormones were so messed up from Lupron. I'm not really sure what options I have to get some relief so i can enjoy life. :-(
