Question

I'm 35 with a 5-year-old kid and have been dealing with severe stomach pain during my periods. Multiple doctors diagnosed me with endometriosis it was 8.3 mm in the last scan and now 8 mm. They recommended surgery, but I'm hoping to treat it with medicine. Right now, I'm taking Dinogest 2mg daily. Can endometriosis this size be cured with meds, and how long might it take to see improvement?

Severe stomach pain during periods, especially if linked to a diagnosis of endometriosis, suggests the need for a comprehensive approach to pain management and potentially further investigation into the condition. While a slight decrease in the lesion size (8.3mm to 8mm) might be considered a minor change, it's not necessarily indicative of a positive or negative trend and warrants further evaluation.

Question

My wife has been dealing with an itchy, uncomfortable feeling down there for about 15 days now, and she sometimes can't resist scratching. There's also some pain in that area. We saw a doctor who asked for a urine test and gave her some medicine, which I've attached to this message. I'm worried because it's still not getting better. Plus, after we have sex, she feels even more itchy and irritated. What should we do?
