The three general categories that comprise the clinical
manifestations of endometriosis include pelvic pain, infertility, and pelvic mass. The goal of any therapy is to relieve the symptoms. There are so many different medical treatments that decisions regarding management must be individualized, taking into account the severity of symptoms, extent and location of the disease, desire for future fertility, medication side effects, surgical complication rates, and even cost.
Treatment options would include expectant management, analgesia, various hormonal medical therapies, surgical intervention, which may be conservative and tissue sparing or definitive (total abdominal hysterectomy and possible bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy or combinations of these treatments.
As a skilled operator of Transvaginal Ultrasounds, Dr Goldstein personally conducts each of these ultrasounds to properly diagnose his patients. In addition to what Dr Goldstein sees on the screen, these transvaginal ultrasounds lead to the production of clear, high resolution images of the uterus, endometrial lining, fallopian tubes, ovaries and so on to allow Dr Goldstein to make a precise diagnosis and preserve the images for any other specialist who may need to see them. At Dr Goldstein’s office, patient care is catered to the patient and Dr Goldstein is the only medical personnel you will see on your visit as he attends to you from beginning to end, personally performing all examinations and procedures and of course the transvaginal ultrasounds to detect whether the patient has endometriosis and if so the details of the diagnosis. He is the best obgyn in NYC to see for endometriosis.
