Treatments
There is no cure for endometriosis, but there are ways to help control it. Birth control, anti-inflammatories, and pain medication are all medications used to treat the effects of endometriosis.A laparoscopy may also be done to see how severe it is and the doctor may burn off the endometrial cells, but this is only a temporary solution.
Ultimately, the only permanent relief is a hysterectomy. Up to 15% of women still continue to have pain following a hysterectomy. http://women.webmd.com/endometriosis/endometriosis-treatment-overview<ref>
