Dr. Jeff Livingston answered

Specializes in Obstetrics and Gynecology

Options : There are multiple options for endometriosis. For women in severe pain who no longer desire pregnancy a hysterectomy is a great option. For those trying to get pregnant other more conservative options should be discussed with your doctor.
