Endometriosis

What is Endometriosis?

Endometriosis is a medical condition that develops in adolescent girls & women when the endometrium, an inner lining tissue of the uterus, begins to develop out of the uterus. Endometrium tissues are formed up of endometrial glands and stroma. These tissues typically grow in the inner lining of the uterus and shed off during the menses.

What are the usual symptoms of Endometriosis?

Excessive pelvic discomfort is the primary and most prevalent sign of Endometriosis. A woman with endometriosis experiences unusual pain during menses. You may feel this pain in various ways,

  • Painful menses: During menstruation, most women experience slight pain, cramping, and discomfort. Endometriosis, on the other hand, may cause slight or more menstruation pain and cramps. This pain may manifest between the menstrual cycles. In addition, women begin to have back and abdominal pain before or after menstruation. It may restrain her from performing her routine activity. It is also termed dysmenorrhea.
