Endometriosis is a chronic condition where tissue similar to the uterine lining grows outside the uterus, causing pain, inflammation, and sometimes infertility.
Common symptoms include severe pelvic pain, heavy periods, painful intercourse, fatigue, digestive issues, and difficulty conceiving.
Diagnosis may involve pelvic exams, imaging tests like ultrasounds or MRIs, and in some cases, a laparoscopic procedure for confirmation.
Currently, there is no permanent cure. However, symptoms can be managed through hormonal therapy, pain management, lifestyle changes, and surgery when necessary.
Treatments include hormonal medications, pain relievers, physical therapy, dietary changes, and surgical removal of endometrial-like tissue.
