Endometriosis and Adenomyosis: Modern Concepts of Their Clinical Outcomes, Treatment, and Management.

Endometriosis and adenomyosis are complex gynecological conditions characterized by diverse clinical presentations, including superficial peritoneal endometriosis (SPE), ovarian endometrioma (OMA), and deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE). The hallmark features of these pathologies involve the manifestation of pain symptoms and infertility, and approximately 30% of patients are asymptomatic. Despite ongoing research, definitive treatments for these conditions remain elusive, and clinical management primarily revolves around medical or surgical interventions. Recent advancements in our understanding of the efficacy of various treatment modalities, including medical therapy and surgical interventions, have provided clinicians with valuable insights into pain relief and fertility preservation. This review aims to provide an updated overview of the latest literature on clinical outcomes, treatment options, and management strategies for different types of endometriosis. By synthesizing the newest available data, this review seeks to inform clinicians and guide decision making based on factors such as patients' symptom severity, childbearing desire, and overall health.
