Diseases of the pelvic organs have many complications, and therefore require prompt treatment. One of the pathologies, which in particular affects the reproductive function of a woman, is endometriosis of the ovaries.
About the disease
Endometriosis is the proliferation of the inner mucous layer of the uterus beyond the body. One of the places of development of the disease are the ovaries. Most often, tissue, which in its structure is similar to the endometrium, getting into the ovary, promotes the appearance of endometriotic cysts.
In endometriosis, the ovarian cyst is a cavity filled with altered blood. Such formations lead to depletion of ovarian function, which almost completely eliminates the onset of pregnancy. In other words, endometriosis of the ovaries and pregnancy, as a rule, are incompatible concepts.
Symptoms of endometriosis of the ovaries
In some cases, in particular at an early stage, the disease is asymptomatic. It is the absence of symptoms of ovarian endometriosis that complicates timely diagnostics, and, accordingly, treatment of the disease.

For the treatment of endometriosis of the uterus and ovaries, laparoscopy is also used - a procedure that allows careful removal of endometriotic cysts and foci of the disease. Such surgical treatment, unlike conservative long-term therapy with hormones, leaves more chances for the preservation of the reproductive function of the ovaries.
