Endometriosis is a condition where tissue similar to the lining of your uterus grows on other parts of your body. When this tissue grows in the wrong places, it can cause you to experience uncomfortable symptoms that can impact your daily life.
With endometriosis, the endometrial-like tissue acts as endometrial tissue would — it thickens, breaks down and bleeds with each menstrual cycle. But because this tissue has no way to exit your body, it becomes trapped. When endometriosis involves the ovaries, cysts called endometriomas may form. Surrounding tissue can become irritated, eventually developing scar tissue and adhesions - bands of fibrous tissue that can cause pelvic tissues and organs to stick to each other.
Common signs and symptoms of endometriosis include:
• Painful periods
• Lower back and abdominal pain.
• Pain with intercourse.
• Pain with bowel movements or urination
• Excessive bleeding
• Infertility.
• Diarrhea
• Constipation
