Many women with endometriosis go through surgery after surgery—and still don’t feel better.
In this episode of The Natural Womanhood Podcast, Editor-in-Chief Grace Emily Stark interviews Patrick Yeung, MD, about why endometriosis surgery does not have to be a cycle of repeat procedures.

Dr. Yeung believes the goal of endometriosis surgery should be “one and done.”
That means removing the disease completely, preventing scar tissue, and protecting a woman’s long-term health and fertility.

Dr. Yeung is the founder of the RESTORE Center for Endometriosis in St. Louis, Missouri. His center specializes in laparoscopic excision (LAPEX) surgery, not ablation.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

Why many endometriosis surgeries fail
The difference between excision and ablation
What “optimal excision” really means
Why post-surgery scar tissue (adhesions) matter
How Dr. Yeung’s three-part approach reduces repeat surgeries
Why hormonal birth control alone does not treat endometriosis
What questions to ask to find the right endometriosis doctor

The RESTORE Center reports only a 2.5% repeat surgery rate over 10 years, showing what is possible with comprehensive, root-cause treatment.

Endometriosis is one of the most common and debilitating reproductive diseases worldwide—and a leading cause of infertility. If you or someone you love is searching for real answers, this episode will help you understand your options and advocate for better care.
