Management of Polycystic Ovarian Disease, Fibroids and Endometriosis

Gynaecology hospital in Hebbal, Bangalore

Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is a hormonal problem in reproductive years. A woman with PCOS has more androgen in the body, a male hormone. Your periods will be irregular. Sometimes you may have periods more often, or you may have periods on a different basis. When you have PCOS, cysts appear on the ovary's outer edge. These cysts contain immature eggs, which are called follicles. Follicles cannot release eggs regularly. Although the cause of PCOS is unknown, early diagnosis and treatment can give a good result.

Treatment of PCOS

Treatment methods for PCOS depend on various symptoms and causes. The treatment includes changes in lifestyle and medications.

Lifestyle changes

You may have to control your diet to reduce weight, and you may also have to do some exercises to keep the weight under control. Even 5% of body weight losses may also have a good impact.

Medications

You may have to take the following medications to regulate your periods.

  • Birth control pills

Your healthcare provider prescribes pills that help to reduce the production of androgen and regulate estrogen.

  • Progestin Therapy

You can regulate your periods by taking progestin for 10 to 14 days every 1 to 2 months. It also protects against endometrial cancer.

Fibroids

Fibroids are the growth of the uterus that appears in the childbearing years. The development is non-cancerous, and Fibroids do not threaten cancer risk.

Treatment of Fibroids

Treatment methods for fibroids include medications or MRI-guided surgery.

  • Medications

Medications are used to regulate the hormones to regulate the menstrual cycle. Some medicines include Gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) agonists that prevent the production of estrogen and progesterone. Tranexamic acid is also used to avoid heavy menstrual bleeding.

  • MRI-guided surgery

This method is performed to destroy the small areas of the fibroid, and it can be done without incision. This method is used when you are inside an MRI scanner that is equipped with an ultrasound transducer. It helps the doctor to find the exact location of the uterine fibroids, which can be destroyed by the sound waves of the ultrasound transducer.

Endometriosis

Endometriosis is a disorder when the tissues typically grow outside the uterus. When you have endometriosis, you will feel pain and have an irregular menstrual cycle.

Treatment of Endometriosis

Endometriosis is treated with the help of medications and surgery. The doctor will adopt any of these procedures, examining the severity of the symptoms.

  • Medications

The doctor may recommend some medications to relieve your pain. You will be prescribed non-steroid anti-inflammatory drugs, naproxen sodium, and ibuprofen to provide comfort during menstrual cramps.

Hormonal therapy may also be used to cure the pain. Hormonal treatments include hormonal contraceptives, progestin therapy, and aromatase inhibitors. This therapy helps to regulate the hormonal imbalance and reduce the pain.

  • Surgery

If you are trying to become pregnant while struggling with endometriosis, surgery can help remove the endometriosis implants. Your surgeon will carry out this procedure with the help of laparoscopy or conventional surgery. 

The surgeon will make a small incision and insert the device to remove the endometriosis-affected tissue during laparoscopic surgery. Your doctor might also provide hormonal painkillers after the operation. Book an appointment today to consult with the experts.
