I received a message recently that gave me the motivation to continue pursuing complex endometriosis surgery. These operations are often technically demanding, require meticulous dissection, and can take many hours. They require a dedicated team effort.

I would like to thank Dr Angeline, my surgical colleague and assisting surgeon, and the entire operating team for their invaluable support and expertise during this complex surgery. A strong surgical team is essential to improve efficiency, maintain precision, and ultimately provide safer care and better outcomes for our patients.

A young woman came to see me for a second opinion after trying to conceive for four years. She had also experienced painful periods for many years. Hoping to avoid a laparotomy (open surgery), she was looking for a minimally invasive treatment option.

Following a comprehensive assessment, she was diagnosed with Stage IV endometriosis, with bilateral ovarian endometriomas (chocolate cysts), bowel involvement, complete obliteration of the pouch of Douglas, uterine fibroids, and an endometrial polyp.

She underwent advanced laparoscopic surgery, including excision of deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE), bilateral ovarian cystectomy for chocolate cysts, re**al nodule shaving, myomectomy, and hysteroscopic polypectomy. She then continued with postoperative medical therapy.

Following surgery and medical treatment, she recovered well and her symptoms improved significantly.

As her ovarian reserve was already diminished, we discussed Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART) as part of her fertility plan. However, after understanding all of her options, she chose to continue trying to conceive naturally.

Recently, she shared the wonderful news that she had conceived naturally.

Outcomes like this are meaningful, but they also remind us that every patient's journey is unique.

This is one patient's story, not a promise for every woman with Stage IV endometriosis. Fertility outcomes depend on many factors, and many women with severe endometriosis may still require ART to achieve pregnancy. Surgery is only one part of treatment, and long-term medical therapy remains important in reducing the risk of disease recurrence.

I am truly happy for her and wish her a healthy and smooth pregnancy journey ahead.

最近收到一位患者的消息,给予我动力继续投入于复杂子宫内膜异位症手术。

这些手术往往技术要求高,需要非常精细的解剖分离,也可能需要数小时才能完成。然而,复杂手术的成功,从来不是一个人的努力。特别感谢 Dr Angeline 医生及整个手术团队的专业协作与支持。一个优秀的手术团队,对于提高手术效率、维持操作精准度,以及最终为患者提供更安全的治疗和更好的治疗效果,都是不可或缺的。

一位年轻女性在备孕四年后,前来寻求第二意见。她也长期受到经期疼痛的困扰,希望能够避免传统开腹手术(Laparotomy),因此寻求微创手术治疗的可能性。

详细检查后,她被诊断为第四期子宫内膜异位症(Stage IV Endometriosis),双侧巧克力囊肿, 内异症累及肠道, 子宫肌瘤, 子宫内膜息肉

她接受了复杂腹腔镜手术 (深部浸润型子宫内膜异位症切除, 双侧巧克力囊肿切除, 子宫肌瘤切除) 和 宫腔镜子宫内膜息肉切除

术后,她也继续接受药物治疗。经过手术及后续治疗后,她恢复良好,相关症状也得到改善。

由于 AMH 和 EFI 评分偏低,我曾建议她考虑辅助生殖技术(ART)作为生育计划的一部分。然而,她选择继续自然尝试怀孕。

最近,她与我分享了一个令人欣喜的消息——她成功自然怀孕了。

这样的结果令人欣慰,但也再次提醒我们:每一位患者的旅程都是独一无二的。

这只是一位患者的真实故事,并不代表所有第四期子宫内膜异位症患者都会有相同的结果。

怀孕机会受到许多因素影响,许多严重子宫内膜异位症患者仍可能需要借助辅助生殖技术(ART) 才能成功怀孕。手术只是治疗的一部分,而长期药物治疗对于降低疾病复发风险同样十分重要。

衷心替她感到高兴,也祝福她拥有一个平安、健康、顺利的孕程

Baru-baru ini saya menerima satu mesej daripada seorang pesakit yang memberi saya semangat untuk terus mendalami bidang pembedahan endometriosis kompleks.

Pembedahan ini selalunya sangat mencabar dari segi teknikal, memerlukan pembedahan yang teliti dan boleh mengambil masa berjam-jam untuk diselesaikan. Kejayaan pembedahan seperti ini hanya dapat dicapai melalui kerjasama sebuah pasukan yang berdedikasi.

Saya ingin merakamkan setinggi-tinggi penghargaan kepada Dr. Angeline, rakan pakar bedah dan pembantu pembedahan saya, serta seluruh pasukan bilik pembedahan atas sokongan, komitmen dan kepakaran mereka sepanjang prosedur yang kompleks ini. Sebuah pasukan pembedahan yang mantap amat penting bagi meningkatkan kecekapan, mengekalkan ketepatan, dan akhirnya memberikan rawatan yang lebih selamat serta hasil yang lebih baik kepada para pesakit.

Seorang wanita muda mendapatkan pandangan kedua selepas empat tahun berusaha untuk hamil. Beliau juga telah lama mengalami senggugut yang teruk. Dengan harapan dapat mengelakkan laparotomi (pembedahan terbuka), beliau mencari pilihan rawatan invasif minimum.

Hasil penilaian menunjukkan beliau menghidap Endometriosis Tahap IV, disertai endometrioma (sista coklat) pada kedua-dua ovari, penglibatan usus, obliterasi lengkap pouch of Douglas, fibroid rahim, serta polip endometrium.

Beliau menjalani pembedahan laparoskopi lanjutan, termasuk eksisi endometriosis infiltratif dalam (DIE), sistektomi kedua-dua ovari untuk sista coklat, pembuangan nodul rektum (re**al nodule shaving), miomektomi, serta polipektomi histeroskopi. Selepas itu, beliau meneruskan rawatan ubat selepas pembedahan.

Selepas pembedahan dan rawatan susulan, beliau pulih dengan baik dan simptomnya bertambah baik.

Disebabkan penilian AMH dan EFI yang rendah, Teknologi Reproduktif Berbantu (ART) sebagai sebahagian daripada pelan kesuburannya. Namun, selepas memahami semua pilihan yang ada, beliau memilih untuk terus mencuba hamil secara semula jadi.

Baru-baru ini, beliau berkongsi berita yang amat menggembirakan — beliau berjaya hamil secara semula jadi.

Keputusan seperti ini amat bermakna, namun ia juga mengingatkan kita bahawa setiap perjalanan pesakit adalah berbeza.

Ini hanyalah kisah seorang pesakit, bukan jaminan bahawa semua wanita dengan Endometriosis Tahap IV akan memperoleh keputusan yang sama.

Peluang untuk hamil bergantung kepada pelbagai faktor. Ramai wanita dengan endometriosis yang teruk masih memerlukan ART untuk mencapai kehamilan. Pembedahan hanyalah sebahagian daripada rawatan, dan terapi ubat jangka panjang juga penting bagi mengurangkan risiko penyakit berulang.

Saya amat gembira untuk beliau dan mendoakan agar beliau melalui kehamilan yang sihat, selamat dan dipermudahkan sehingga kelahiran bayi beliau.

Does every woman with endometriosis need surgery?

Not necessarily.

Many women can be managed successfully with medication, while others may benefit from surgery depending on their symptoms, fertility plans, and the severity of the disease. Treatment should always be individualised.

子宫内膜异位症一定需要开刀吗?

不一定。

许多患者可通过药物控制症状;但若症状严重、药物效果不佳,或有生育需求等情况,则可能需要手术治疗。治疗方案应根据个人情况制定。

Apparently my patients are more concerned about me starving than I am. 🤣

Chicken pie ✔️
Scones ✔️

They know I'm operating all morning, so they came prepared.

Thank you so much for the food and the sugar rush! ❤️
But... how to reduce weight like this la? 😂

💭 "I thought period pain was just part of being a woman."
💭 “我一直以为,经痛是每个女生都会经历的。”
💭 "Saya ingat senggugut yang teruk itu perkara biasa."

If you've ever missed school, skipped work, cancelled plans, or stayed awake because of period pain... it shouldn't be ignored. ❤️ Many women with Endometriosis spend years searching for answers because their symptoms are dismissed as "normal" or mistaken for other conditions.

如果你的经痛严重到影响上学、工作、运动、睡眠,甚至日常生活,请不要再默默忍受。❤️ 许多子宫内膜异位症患者,往往经历多年才获得正确诊断,因为症状常被认为是“正常经痛”,或被误诊为其他疾病。

Jika senggugut anda menyebabkan anda ponteng sekolah, tidak dapat bekerja, berhenti bersenam atau mengganggu tidur, jangan anggap ia sebagai sesuatu yang normal. ❤️ Ramai wanita yang menghidap Endometriosis mengambil masa bertahun-tahun untuk mendapatkan diagnosis kerana simptom mereka sering dianggap sebagai senggugut biasa atau disalah anggap sebagai penyakit lain.

Don't suffer in silence. Listen to your body. 🤍
请倾听身体发出的讯号。🤍
Jangan terus menanggungnya seorang diri. Dengarkan isyarat tubuh anda. 🤍

🤔 Think Endometriosis = Chocolate Cyst? Not quite!
🤔 你以为子宫内膜异位症 = 巧克力囊肿? 不一定!

One of the biggest myths about Endometriosis is that it always shows up as a "Chocolate Cyst". 🍫
The truth? Endometriosis has many faces. It can appear as tiny lesions, red inflammatory spots, deep infiltrating disease, black "gunpowder" lesions, or ovarian chocolate cysts.
Some are easily seen, while others may be difficult to detect even on scans. 🔍 That's why some women experience severe symptoms despite "normal" scan results, while others may have extensive disease with few symptoms.

很多人以为子宫内膜异位症就是“巧克力囊肿”🍫,但其实这只是其中一种表现。
真正的内膜异位症,可能是细小病灶、红色发炎病灶、黑色火药点病灶、深层浸润型病灶,或巧克力囊肿。部分病灶容易发现,部分则即使进行扫描也未必容易辨认。🔍 这也是为什么有些女性检查结果看似正常,却长期承受疼痛;而有些病灶范围较大,却症状不明显。

✨ Different appearances. Same disease.
✨ 外观不同,同一种疾病。

Understanding Endometriosis is the first step towards getting the right diagnosis and treatment.
了解内膜异位症,才能更早获得正确诊断与治疗。
