The most extreme and serious cases will require a hysterectomy, which include the removal of all tumors or lumps and ovaries. The endometriosis has some probability to back according to the kind of the surgery. 

3. TCM therapy. Except for the two methods above, we can also use traditional Chinese medicine: Fuyan pill to treat endometriosis.
