If you have had painful periods for more than six months you may have a disease called endometriosis. This disease can cause pelvic pain, irregular bleeding, and severe internal scarring. Many women with untreated endometriosis develop infertility and the need for hysterectomy. Early treatment can often protect a woman's ability to have children and prevent the need for hysterectomy. Early treatment includes oral contraceptive pills and anti-inflammatory medications like Motrin, Aleve, or Advil.

If these medicines don't stop the pain then a simple, outpatient procedure called laparoscopy (band-aid surgery) can often remove the active disease, eliminate the pain, and protect a woman's ability to have children.

This procedure can now be safely performed at The Women's Surgery Center and does not require a hospital visit!
