📖What is Endometriosis?
Endometriosis is a chronic condition in which tissue similar to the lining of the uterus grows outside the uterine cavity, most commonly on the ovaries, fallopian tubes, and pelvic lining, where it continues to thicken, break down, and bleed with each menstrual cycle just as the normal uterine lining does. Because this displaced tissue has no way to exit the body, it causes inflammation, scar tissue, and adhesions that can lead to significant chronic pelvic pain and, in a substantial number of cases, difficulty conceiving. It typically affects women during their reproductive years and often takes years to be correctly diagnosed due to the variable and overlapping nature of its symptoms.
