Highlights of Endogynecology Care
What is Endogynecology?
Endogynecology is a specialised area of women’s healthcare that uses minimally invasive techniques to diagnose and treat conditions affecting the uterus, ovaries and other pelvic organs.
Many procedures are performed through small abdominal incisions or through natural openings. The recommended approach depends on the condition, symptoms, age, overall health and future pregnancy plans.
Conditions Treated Under Endogynecology
Endometriosis
Endometriosis occurs when tissue similar to the lining of the uterus grows outside it. It may cause severe period pain, long-term pelvic pain, pain during intercourse or difficulty becoming pregnant.
Uterine prolapse
A uterine prolapse occurs when the muscles and tissues supporting the uterus weaken, allowing it to move downwards into the vagina. Symptoms may include pelvic heaviness, discomfort or a vaginal bulge.
Urinary incontinence
Urinary incontinence means passing urine without intending to. It may occur while coughing, sneezing or exercising or along with a sudden urge to urinate.
Rectal or pelvic organ prolapse
Weak pelvic support can allow the rectum or another pelvic organ to move out of its usual position. Treatment is planned according to the organ affected and the severity of symptoms.
Other pelvic conditions
Endogynecology may also be used to evaluate and treat selected conditions affecting the uterus, ovaries or pelvic tissues. Your specialist will explain whether minimally invasive surgery is suitable.
When Should You Consult a Specialist?
Consider an evaluation if you experience:
Severe or worsening period pain
Long-term pelvic pain
Heavy or irregular bleeding
Pain during intercourse
Difficulty passing urine or urine leakage
A feeling of pressure or heaviness in the pelvis
A bulge from the vagina
Pain during bowel movements
Difficulty becoming pregnant with possible endometriosis symptoms
These symptoms can have different causes. A medical assessment is needed before treatment is planned.
How are Pelvic Conditions Diagnosed?
Your consultation begins with a discussion about your symptoms, menstrual history, previous treatments and pregnancy plans. Evaluation may include:
Pelvic examination
Ultrasound scan
MRI scan when more detail is required
Blood or urine tests
Laparoscopy in selected cases
Not every patient needs surgery to confirm a diagnosis. Tests are chosen according to the symptoms and suspected condition.
Advanced Endogynecology Treatments
Medical treatment
Medicines or hormonal treatment may be recommended for some conditions, including selected cases of endometriosis. Treatment depends on symptom severity and pregnancy plans.
Laparoscopic surgery
Laparoscopy uses a small camera and specialised instruments inserted through small abdominal cuts. It may be used to evaluate or treat endometriosis and selected pelvic conditions.
Endometriosis surgery
Surgery may remove endometriosis tissue and release internal scar tissue when appropriate. The treatment plan considers pain, disease extent and future fertility.
Pelvic organ prolapse surgery
Surgery may be advised when prolapse symptoms are significant or other treatment options have not helped. The procedure is selected according to the type of prolapse and the patient’s needs.
Urinary incontinence procedures
Some women with urinary leakage may benefit from a procedure after proper testing. Non-surgical options may also be recommended before surgery.
Hysterectomy
Removal of the uterus may be considered for selected conditions when other options are unsuitable and future pregnancy is not planned. It is not required for every endogynecology condition.
Benefits of Minimally Invasive Surgery
When suitable, minimally invasive surgery may offer:
Smaller incisions
Less discomfort after surgery
Shorter hospital stay
Smaller scars
Earlier return to daily activities
Benefits and recovery differ according to the procedure and the patient’s health. Your surgeon will explain the expected outcome and possible risks.
Patient-Centred Care
Pelvic health concerns can affect work, sleep, relationships and confidence. At GEM Hospital, patients receive clear explanations about the diagnosis, available options and expected recovery.
Where relevant, the treatment plan considers future fertility and the preservation of healthy pelvic organs. Patients also receive guidance before surgery and during follow-up.
