How to check endometriosis by B-ultrasound?

After endometriosis occurs, it will promote uterine muscle contraction, causing patients to experience various uncomfortable symptoms.

The B-ultrasound examination of endometriosis uses a vaginal probe to place the mass in a high-frequency sound field. It has the advantage of identifying the nature of pelvic masses and can determine the nature and source of the mass. It can also perform puncture to extract cystic fluid or biopsy under ultrasound guidance to confirm the diagnosis.

B-ultrasound examination of endometriosis shows that the endometrioid cyst has granular small echoes. If the cyst fluid is viscous, endometrial fragments float inside, which can easily be similar to the echo characteristics of hair in teratoma fat, that is, small light bands in the fluid are distributed in parallel dotted lines.

Sometimes it is separated internally and divided into several cystic cavities of different sizes. The echo between each cystic cavity is inconsistent and usually adheres to the uterus, and the boundary between the two is unclear. Teratoma usually has a clear cystic boundary. Ovarian endometrioid cysts are also easily confused with adnexitis masses and tubal pregnancy images, so they should be identified in combination with their respective clinical characteristics.

Endometriosis can be treated by both Western and Traditional Chinese Medicine. How does Western Medicine treat endometriosis?

Western medicine believes that the occurrence, development and regression of endometriosis are under the control of endocrine, and hormone therapy is effective. The purpose of treatment is to cure the disease, prevent recurrence and promote fertility. The effect of drug treatment is best for mild and moderate endometriosis, which can relieve symptoms and increase the pregnancy rate; severe patients have larger lesions, more fibrosis and tight adhesions. Surgical treatment is still required.
