At Dr Mannan IVF Centre in New Delhi, one of the most common and challenging conditions I treat is endometriosis.
With over 10 years of experience in fertility care, I have seen firsthand how difficult this condition can be for women.
For too many, the journey to a diagnosis is long and frustrating. They suffer for years with debilitating period pain, chronic pelvic discomfort, and fertility struggles, often being told their symptoms are just “bad cramps” or “part of being a woman.”
I want to be very clear: severe pain is not normal. Endometriosis is a real, complex, and often painful disease, but it is treatable.
My mission is to validate your experience, provide an accurate diagnosis, and create a personalised treatment plan that aligns with your goals—whether that is living pain-free, restoring your quality of life, or achieving your dream of motherhood.
Key Takeaways
- A Widespread Condition: Endometriosis affects roughly 1 in 10 women, but it is frequently underdiagnosed.
- Beyond Bad Periods: It’s an inflammatory disease that can affect fertility and cause chronic pain.
- Laparoscopy is Key: “Keyhole” surgery is the gold standard for both diagnosing and treating endometriosis.
- Fertility-Focused Care: Our treatment approach prioritises preserving your ovarian reserve and enhancing your chances of conception.
What is Endometriosis?
To understand endometriosis, we first need to look at the endometrium—the tissue that lines the inside of your uterus.
Every month, this lining thickens and then sheds, causing your period.
In endometriosis, tissue similar to this lining grows outside the uterus. These rogue implants can be found on the ovaries, fallopian tubes, the outer surface of the uterus, and the lining of the pelvic cavity.
The problem is that this misplaced tissue still behaves like the uterine lining: it thickens and bleeds with your monthly cycle.
But unlike your period, this blood has no way to exit the body.
This internal bleeding leads to inflammation, intense pain, and the formation of scar tissue (adhesions) that can bind organs together.
When endometriosis forms on the ovaries, it can create cysts filled with old, dark blood, known as “chocolate cysts” or endometriomas.
Symptoms: More Than Just Pain
The symptoms of endometriosis can vary widely, but the most common signs include:
- Painful Periods (Dysmenorrhoea): Pain so severe it interferes with your daily activities.
- Chronic Pelvic Pain: Pain that occurs even when you are not on your period.
- Painful Intercourse (Dyspareunia): Deep pain during or after sex.
- Infertility: Endometriosis can distort pelvic anatomy, block fallopian tubes, and create an inflammatory environment that is hostile to sperm and embryos.
- Painful Bowel Movements or Urination: Especially during your period, if implants are on the bowel or bladder.
- Heavy Bleeding or Bleeding Between Periods.
The severity of your pain does not always correlate with the extent of the disease.
Some women with severe disease have little pain, while others with mild disease experience debilitating symptoms.
Diagnosis: The Importance of Seeing a Specialist
Diagnosing endometriosis requires a high index of suspicion and the right tools.
- Clinical Evaluation:
It starts with me listening carefully to your story. The type of pain you describe often points us in the right direction. - Transvaginal Ultrasound:
A specialised ultrasound can often detect chocolate cysts on the ovaries. However, superficial implants on the pelvic lining are not visible on a scan. - Laparoscopy (Gold Standard):
The only way to definitively diagnose endometriosis is to look inside the pelvis.
Laparoscopy is a minimally invasive “keyhole” surgery. Through a tiny incision near the belly button, I insert a camera to directly visualise the pelvic organs, identify the implants, and assess the extent of the disease.
The huge advantage is that we can treat what we find in the same procedure.
Personalised Treatment Options
Treatment is tailored to your symptoms, the severity of the disease, and your desire for children.
1. Medical Management
For managing pain, hormonal medications can be effective.
- Hormonal Contraceptives: Birth control pills can suppress the growth of implants and reduce pain.
- Progestins: These can be given as pills or through a hormonal IUD (like Mirena), which helps to control pain and bleeding.
- GnRH Agonists: These medications induce a temporary, reversible menopause, “starving” the endometriosis implants of the oestrogen they need to grow.
2. Laparoscopic Surgical Treatment
For women with significant pain, large cysts, or infertility, surgery is often the best option.
- Laparoscopic Excision/Ablation: During laparoscopy, I use specialised instruments to either destroy (ablate) or, preferably, cut out (excise) the endometriosis implants and remove scar tissue.
- Cystectomy: If you have chocolate cysts, the goal is to carefully shell out the cyst lining while preserving as much healthy ovarian tissue as possible. This is crucial for protecting your future fertility.
The goal of surgery is to remove the disease, restore normal anatomy, and reduce pain.
For women trying to conceive, surgery can significantly improve the chances of a natural pregnancy.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
1. Is endometriosis a type of cancer?
No. Endometriosis is a benign (non-cancerous) condition. However, it can be very invasive and cause significant damage to pelvic organs.
2. Can endometriosis be cured permanently?
Laparoscopic surgery can remove the existing disease, but as long as you are menstruating, there is a risk it can recur. The only definitive cure is a hysterectomy with removal of the ovaries, which is a last resort for women who have completed their families and have severe, unresponsive disease.
3. If I have surgery, will I be able to get pregnant?
For many women, yes. Surgery can improve fertility by removing scar tissue, unblocking tubes, and reducing inflammation. We often recommend trying to conceive naturally for 6-12 months after surgery, as this is the window of highest fertility.
4. How long is the recovery from laparoscopic surgery?
Recovery is quite fast. You can typically go home the same day or the next day. Most women are back to their normal routine within 1-2 weeks.
5. I have painful periods but my ultrasound is normal. Could I still have endometriosis?
Absolutely. This is a very common scenario. Superficial endometriosis implants are not visible on ultrasound. If your symptoms are classic for the disease, a diagnostic laparoscopy is the next logical step to get a definitive answer.
