Skip to content At Womens Health Group Chicago, we provide advanced pain management techniques to patients suffering from endometriosis. We understand the crucial role that pain management plays in improving the quality of life for women with this condition. Our specialists utilize a comprehensive approach involving non-narcotic medications, physical therapy referrals if needed and counseling to help manage your symptoms effectively.
We believe hormonal therapies are vital components in managing endometriosis. At Womens Health Group Chicago, our dedicated team administers different types of hormonal treatments depending on the severity and location of your condition as well as any future fertility plans you may have. From birth control pills to gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) agonists, these therapies can regulate abnormal periods and alleviate symptoms.
When medication and other non-invasive procedures don’t bring relief from endometriosis symptoms, surgery might be considered. At our clinic in Cicero area of Chicago, we prioritize minimally invasive surgical interventions like laparoscopy—this procedure helps minimize scarring while providing us detailed visuals so we can precisely remove or destroy patches of endometrial tissue without causing undue harm to surrounding areas.
Endometriosis is known to pose challenges for women desiring pregnancy but at Womens Health Group Chicago we remain committed towards restoring hope.
