Am I a candidate for endometriosis treatment?
Treatment for endometriosis may be recommended for women experiencing:
- Painful menstrual cramps
- Chronic pelvic pain
- Lower back pain
- Pain during intercourse
- Heavy or irregular menstrual bleeding
- Painful bowel movements or urination during periods
- Difficulty becoming pregnant
- Symptoms that interfere with daily activities
A gynecologist can evaluate your symptoms and discuss the treatment options that best fit your needs and goals.
Advanced robotic surgery for endometriosis
When medication and other conservative treatments are not providing adequate relief, surgery may be recommended. At NGHS, we offer advanced robotic-assisted endometriosis resection, a minimally invasive procedure designed to remove endometriosis tissue with exceptional precision.
Using robotic technology, our surgeons operate through small incisions while benefiting from enhanced visualization and control. Potential benefits include:
- Smaller incisions
- Less pain after surgery
- Reduced blood loss
- Faster recovery
- Treatment for complex cases involving the bladder, bowel or other pelvic structures
Center of Excellence in Minimally Invasive Gynecology
In 2020, Northeast Georgia Medical Center made history as the first hospital in Georgia to receive accreditation as a Center of Excellence in both Robotic Surgery and Minimally Invasive Gynecology. With a focus on compassionate care, we strive to provide treatments that prioritize our patients’ well-being and comfort. When you choose NGMC for your hysterectomy, you can trust that you are in capable and caring hands.
