Endometriosis is a chronic medical condition characterized by the growth of tissue similar to the uterine lining (endometrium) outside the uterus. This misplaced tissue commonly attaches to the ovaries, bowel, and other pelvic structures, but in rare cases, it may spread beyond the pelvic area.
Throughout the menstrual cycle, hormonal changes prompt this aberrant tissue to become inflamed and painful, leading it to thicken and eventually break down. Unlike the normal endometrial tissue, this tissue cannot exit the body and thus remains trapped within the pelvis.
The accumulation of this trapped tissue can lead to several complications, such as:
- Inflammation and irritation
- Formation of scar tissue
- Adhesions that cause pelvic organs to fuse together
- Severe menstrual pain
- Challenges with fertility
Recognizing the symptoms and understanding the impact of endometriosis is crucial for seeking prompt medical intervention and managing the condition effectively.
