Endometriosis

Not writing just for the sake of writing,but one more severe case endometriosis in a young unmarried female with multiple health issues and I really feel low and helpless.If I go operate with the intention of preserving her fertility ,this would be her 5th surgery(4 other done for various reasons).And then she is bound to have a removal of uterus and ovary sooner or later.Sometimes I do wonder,God could have been a little more kind on human beings.

Fibroids and Endometriosis

Come across so many youn patients in their late twenties and early thirties with Fibroid uterus and Endometrosis.Just in last 1 week performed operative laparoscopy with severe endometriosis in 2 young females.My heart went for them.Yet to complete family and both the ovaries converted into big cysts(endometriomas)with gut stuck wickedly to the uterus.
a very tough decision to make as a surgeon.You know you are leaving the ovary behind,as they haven't completed the family yet for another round of surgery later few years down the lane.........
