Dr Kenneth Barron – Gynecology & Minimal Invasive Surgery, Endometriosis Specialist.
Summary: Dr Kenneth Barron is a leading gynecologist and minimally invasive surgeon in Charlottesville, VA, specializing in endometriosis care and advanced fertility support, including IVF in Charlottesville VA.

He combines surgical expertise with hormonal therapies like high-dose progesterone and GnRH antagonists to support patients before and after treatment. When pain persists, he continues care by assessing for other pain sources such as nerve or myofascial issues. Patients seeking both endometriosis relief and fertility options turn to Dr Kenneth Barron for trusted, long-term support and highly specialized care in the heart of Charlottesville.
City: Charlottesville, Virginia
Philosophy:
Medication: Hormonal medications can be helpful for patients in controlling symptoms, preparing for fertility treatment, and anticipating surgery. Patients seek me out for surgical management when medicine fails. I often have patients try high-dose progesterone (norethindrone at 2.5 mg) if they have not before. I occasionally treat with GnRH antagonists in cases of nerve involvement, desire to shrink the disease before operating to reduce the risk of oophorectomy, and prolonged waiting for surgery.
I always continue to take care of my patients after surgery. There can be more than one pain generator coexisting with endometriosis. If pain persists post-operatively, I re-evaluate the patient for other sources of pain, if not already recognized pre-operatively, such as myofascial pain, neuropathic pain, primary uterine pain, or bowel and bladder-related pain.

City: Hopkinsville, Kentucky
Philosophy: Multifactorial origin for a complex disease (with emphasis on genetic and embryonic theories), and thus the treatment approach needs to be personalized and multidisciplinary.
What type of surgery do you perform for endometriosis?: Excision
Medication: I use hormonal suppression with combined contraceptives or some progestational agents when someone does not want surgical treatment and desires contraception. I use GnRH antagonists for patients who are suffering from pain symptoms and desiring to delay surgical intervention and not attempting conception.
Approach to Persistent Pain After Surgery: Reassess and reevaluate for any concomitant pathology that could be contributing to pain. Also, postoperative hormonal suppression decreases the risk of recurrence
