L'endometriosis is a complex and often painful gynaecological condition, affecting around one in ten women. It is characterized by the presence of tissue similar to the uterine lining outside the uterus, causing pain, inflammation and sometimes infertility. . Many people with endometriosis experience pelvic pain and discomfort, particularly during menstruation and sexual intercourse. The Endometriosis Center in Paris is a pioneer in the multidisciplinary management of endometriosis, offering patients comprehensive support from diagnosis to treatment, including post-intervention follow-up.
Introduction to endometriosis
Endometriosis is often misunderstood, both by the general public and by women who unknowingly suffer from it. Symptoms vary, but generally include pelvic pain, painful menstruation and pain during intercourse. The impact on quality of life can be considerable, making careful, specialized management essential.
The multidisciplinary Paris Endometriosis Center
Our Endometriosis Center adopts an integrated approach, bringing together gynecologists, radiologists, surgeons, psychologists and physical therapists. This multidisciplinary team offers a personalized treatment plan, tailored to each patient and each form of endometriosis.
Our diverse team of experts understands the challenges of living with endometriosis and collaborates to create a treatment strategy that addresses your symptoms and focuses on your personal health goals. We use the latest imaging technologies and non-surgical diagnostic tests to develop your treatment plan. With MRI and targeted transvaginal ultrasound, we can diagnose endometriosis and determine where it has spread beyond the uterus into other areas of the pelvis. This information helps us determine the best course of treatment.
Management of endometriosis
Accurate diagnosis is the first step towards effective treatment. Our center uses the latest imaging and diagnostic technologies to identify the extent and location of endometriosis. Treatment options range from drug-based pain management to surgery, as well as complementary approaches such as psychological support and physiotherapy. If you're not trying to conceive, or prefer non-surgical options, our specialists will work with you to determine the medical treatment that's best for you.
If surgical treatment is required, our surgeons use minimally invasive surgical techniques to remove endometrial growths and scar tissue. If pregnancy is your goal, surgery can help improve your ability to conceive.
For many people with endometriosis, pain can be debilitating and affect physical and emotional health. We offer the most advanced pain relief therapies, including nerve blocks and trigger point injections that can stop pain and reduce swelling and inflammation. We also put you in touch with physiotherapists who can offer rehabilitation therapies to relieve pelvic pain.
