Dear Mrunal Phansalkar We need to see your sonography result before deciding you need surgery or any other methods can be beneficial. Painful menstrual periods in woman of reproductive age group fall into two groups, depending on the cause: 1. Primary dysmenorrhea 2. Secondary dysmenorrhea Primary dysmenorrhea is menstrual pain that occurs around the time that menstrual periods first generally begin in otherwise healthy young women. This menstrual pain is usually not necessarily related to a specific problem with the uterus or other pelvic organs. Increased activity of the hormone prostaglandin, which is produced in the uterus, is thought to play a role in this condition. Secondary dysmenorrhea is woman with menstrual pain that develops later in women who have had normal periods and is often related to problems in the uterus or other pelvic organs, such as: Endometriosis Fibroids Intrauterine device (IUD) made of copper Pelvic inflammatory disease Premenstrual syndrome (PMS) Sexually transmitted infection Stress and anxiety So we have to first diagnose the cause of pain and after that only we can say surgery is necessary or not.
