Brief Answer:
Endometriosis

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Welcome to healthcare magic.

Endometriosis is a cause for severe pain and it has to be removed.

Please get laparoscopic surgery done to get endometriotic cyst removed.

These over the counter drugs dont provide long term relief and of no use in you.

Please get laparoscopic surgery done soon.

Mean while take GnRha injections from your doctor to reduce the size endometriosis and little pain relief.

Let me know if you need anymore help.

Regards,
Dr. Soumya

Brief Answer:
LUNA

Detailed Answer:
Hi

LUNA (Lapariscopic uterine nerve ablation) is a process where the nerves carrying pain from endometriosis spots are cut.

This is the last resort since your pain is not subsiding by Laparoscopy surgery or shots.
