Using Hysterectomy to Treat Endometriosis
Source: Verywell Health
Hysterectomy—surgical removal of the uterus—is a common treatment for endometriosis. However, it's not usually the first treatment option and may not be the final one, either. In endometriosis, tissues that normally grow inside the uterus grow outside of it, most often on the ovaries and fallopian tubes. It sometimes extends to the bowels, bladder, and other nearby structures as well.
