What is Endometriosis?
Endometriosis is a curable abnormality of the endometrial
tissue that lines your uterus. Endometriosis can be treated
medically and surgically.
In endometriosis,
microscopic bits of the tissue escape the uterus, instead
of getting washed out during your menstrual cycle and get
deposited onto other organs like the ovaries, inner walls
of the uterus, the ligaments that support the uterus and the
space between the uterus and the rectum.
The tissue reacts
to estrogen and progesterone,
to thicken and bleed. The blood does not have any escape and
effects the surrounding organs to develop what are referred
as cysts, scars, lesions, nodules, growths and adhesions.
You could be
diagnosed as having minimal, mild, moderate or severe endometriosis.
But, the presence of endometrioisis demands immediate attention
and cure or else it can cause infertility.
