Rectal Endometriosis treatment in Magdalena Contreras

Rectal endometriosis is a variant of endometriosis in which tissue similar to the lining of the uterus grows in the wall of the rectum or near it, causing inflammation and discomfort in that area.

Common symptoms:

• Pelvic pain that may intensify during the menstrual period.
• Discomfort with bowel movements, especially on certain days of the cycle.
• At times, bleeding or changes in bowel habits.

When to see a doctor? If you have recurrent pain with bowel movements or pelvic discomfort associated with menstruation, it's reasonable to seek an evaluation.

Which specialist treats it? Because it affects both the reproductive system and the intestine, it usually requires the joint perspective of the general surgeon and the proctologist. Talking with them will allow you to better understand the origin of your symptoms.
