Endometriosis symptoms show themselves differently in every woman. Mild endometriosis can produce excruciating agony, whereas severe endometriosis may remain asymptomatic for months or even years. Many specialists find it difficult to diagnose and treat endometriosis efficiently because of a lack of consistency in the field. While doing an inquiry into infertility, certain cases are uncovered.
So, what’s the difference between surgery performed by a non-specialist and surgery performed by an endometriosis specialist?
Non-specialist
- There is a small number of endometriosis patients.
- Endometriosis is a condition that requires expertise in recognizing and treating.
- Due to the scope of practice, there is only a limited amount of time available for surgical treatments.
- Has received no or very rudimentary training in laparoscopy.
- Techniques to burn the endometriosis are used, with the endometriosis left untreated or just partially cured.
- If a difficult procedure is attempted, the risk of complications is higher.

What information does a woman suffering with endometriosis need to know when choosing a specialist?
Women should take the initiative to educate themselves. It is not merely a keyhole version of an open procedure, as some may believe. The number of doctors who are actual specialists in laparoscopy and who have also mastered the other methods required to provide a safe treatment is limited to a handful.
What is it about endometriosis surgery that makes it so difficult?
- Endometriosis can be difficult to diagnose because of the wide range of visual presentations, some of which are quite faint, and the fact that it can occur in several places across the pelvis.
- Endometriosis can create severe adhesions that fuse pelvic organs together, altering pelvic anatomy, necessitating cautious dissection to avoid causing more harm to the organs.
- While laparoscopy provides the best possible imaging and magnification of the pelvis, it necessitates a high level of surgical expertise and experience.
- Symptoms of endometriosis include pain in and around the bladder, ureter, fallopian tubes, ovaries, bowels, major blood arteries, and the diaphragm, among other organs. The specialist must be familiar operating in all of these regions, and she must be supported by a multidisciplinary team (general, colorectal, urologist, and thoracic surgeons) in order to completely eliminate the illness while minimizing the risk of complications.
- Cutting off the affected parts of the uterus is an effective method of eliminating endometriosis from the uterus. The use of burn (diathermy/ablation) techniques may simply treat the symptoms of an illness, rather than destroying the underlying cause of the sickness. It is not recommended if it is near or involves the bowel or ureter.
How can you tell if you have endometriosis and what to do about it?
- There is a possibility that you will suffer some or all of the following symptoms:
- Menstrual cramps that get more severe with time.
- Pain in the lower back and pelvis that radiates down the legs is a chronic condition.
- Pain that occurs during or after sex.
- Pain in the intestines
- When you’re on your period, you may experience painful bowel movements or painful urination.
- Diarrhoea, constipation, and bloating are all symptoms of gastro-intestinal issues, which are particularly prevalent during your period.
- Menstrual periods that are heavy and/or prolonged.
- Between cycles, there may be spotting or bleeding.
- Infertility.
- Fatigue.

Endometriosis: A Guide to Understanding
Endometriosis affects millions of women around the world, and it is estimated that 10% of women of reproductive age are affected. After uterine fibroids, it is the second most common gynecological condition, with symptoms ranging from minor discomfort to terrible pelvic pain.
