Endometriosis (EM) is an estrogen-dependent neuroinflammatory disease, which leads to chronic pelvic pain, ovarian cysts and infertility seriously affecting women's quality of life. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) believes that blood stasis is the core pathogenesis of EM, with complex syndrome types and diverse treatment plans, but lack of norms and standards. Modern medicine believes that uncontrollable inflammation and adhesion are the pathological processes of EM, but there is a lack of sensitive non-invasive diagnostic markers and ideal treatment methods. EM is a chronic disease, which needs long-term management. Clinical diagnosis should be emphasized in the process of diagnosis and treatment of EM to avoid diagnosis delay. At the same time, attentions should be paid to the standardized treatment of TCM, with early intervention and early use, so as to actively improve the status and clinical utilization rate of TCM in the treatment of EM.
