How to judge whether you have endometriosis

If a woman of childbearing age has secondary dysmenorrhea and progressive aggravation, infertility or chronic pelvic pain, and if the pelvic examination touches a cystic mass connected to the uterus or there is a tender nodule in the pelvic cavity, it can be initially diagnosed as endometriosis. Auxiliary examinations are often needed clinically. B-mode ultrasonography is an important method to diagnose ectopic ovarian cysts and cystorectal endometriosis. It can determine the location, size and shape of ectopic cysts, and its sensitivity and specificity are more than 96%; The serum CA125 level may increase, especially in severe patients, but the range of changes is large. It is clinically used for patients with severe endometriosis and those with deep ectopic lesions. Laparoscopy is currently internationally recognized as the best method for the diagnosis of endometriosis. In addition to direct vision of vaginal or other parts of the disease, laparoscopy is the standard method for the diagnosis of pelvic endometriosis.
