Understanding Endometriosis

Endometriosis occurs when tissue similar to the lining inside the uterus, known as endometrial tissue, starts to grow outside the uterus. This can lead to various symptoms, including:

  • Chronic pelvic pain
  • Painful periods (dysmenorrhea)
  • Pain during intercourse (dyspareunia)
  • Pain with bowel movements or urination
  • Excessive bleeding (heavy periods or bleeding between periods)
  • Infertility
  • Other gastrointestinal issues such as bloating or abdominal discomfort
