At this time, there is no true medical cure for endometriosis. If you and your doctor suspect or discover that you have it, they may prescribe you a pain medication to help relieve pain due to the endometriosis, if you have any. The most common prescribed medication for endometriosis is the Birth Control pill and herbal medicine of Fuyan Pill. Since endometriosis is believed to be in part caused by the over production of estrogen, certain birth control medications are formulated to decrease estrogen production, thus calming the growth of endometrial tissue where it does not belong. In some cases, birth control medications will stop a woman from menstruating, which is a way of giving the body a rest from producing estrogen also. For many women, this has known to help them from experiencing painful periods, or pain in between periods. Talk to your OB GYN about treatment options if you have or suspect you may have endometriosis.
And if you need more professional help about this, you could consult online doctors, like Wuhan Dr. Lee's TCM Clinic, they could offer professional and free online help to you.

Yes. Having a child does not protect you from endometriosis.
