  Overview

  In a podcast-style discussion, Mike Corvino, PharmD, and Cole Swanson, PharmD, examine the management of endometriosis, a chronic gynecological condition affecting many women worldwide. Endometriosis is characterized by the presence of endometrial tissue outside the uterus, leading to symptoms such as pelvic pain, dysmenorrhea, and infertility. Proper management of endometriosis is crucial to improving the quality of life for affected individuals. Healthcare professionals, particularly pharmacists and nurses, must understand the various treatment modalities available, including hormonal therapies, pain management strategies, and surgical interventions. This session aims to equip healthcare professionals with knowledge and insights that can be integrated into daily medical practice when managing endometriosis. Access original Podcast here.
