A hysterectomy is not the answer. I am sure the surgery helps some people but its not the answer because if you dont have a great surgeon to remove all the deep endo then it will still grow back.

in my mind i thought that a hysterectomy was better for me becuase im tired of going through this i have endometreous also and its painful plus fluid around my pelvis so sometimes its hard for me to sleep without pain medicine, the best is advil liquid gels you only need one the best!

Endometriosis is a medical condition where the endometrium (the lining of your uterus... aka the stuff that comes out when you have your period), grows in other places outside of the uterus (like on your ovaries etc.).  This can be incredibly painful.

Hysterectomy is the removal of all or part of the reproductive organs (uterus, fallopian tubes, ovaries, cervix).  

I am guessing you probably already know this and just mis-worded your question, so if you could please clarify, that would be great.

I am not understanding what you mean.  Is it better to have endometriosis or a hysterectomy?
