Endometriosis:
Don’t Let Pain Silence You—Effective Treatment Options Available at Specialist Clinic, Kandy, Sri Lanka.
Imagine a life interrupted by unpredictable pain, heavy periods, and a constant shadow of uncertainty. This is the reality for millions of women worldwide living with endometriosis.
Endometriosis is a condition where tissue similar to the lining of the uterus (endometrium) grows outside the uterus, often on the ovaries, fallopian tubes, and pelvic tissues. During your period, this misplaced tissue responds similarly to the uterine lining, breaking down and bleeding. However, unlike the lining inside the uterus, this displaced tissue has no way to leave the body, causing inflammation, irritation, and excruciating pain.
Are you wondering if you might have endometriosis? Here are some common symptoms to watch out for:
- Pelvic pain, especially during or around your period
- Heavy periods or abnormal bleeding
- Pain during intercourse
- Pain with bowel movements or urination
- Fatigue
- Difficulty getting pregnant
What causes endometriosis?
Unfortunately, the exact cause of endometriosis remains unknown. However, several theories attempt to explain its development, including:
- Retrograde menstruation: During menstruation, some endometrial tissue may travel backwards through the fallopian tubes and implant itself outside the uterus.
- Cell transformation: Cells lining the pelvic cavity may transform into endometrial-like tissue.
- Embryonic cell displacement: During fetal development, cells that will become the endometrium might be misplaced outside the uterus.
