Easy Sujok self treatment options for endometriosis pain
Sometimes endometriosis can also cause infertility
The lining inside the uterus is known as endometrium. As part of the normal menstrual cycle, when hormones are released in the body, the endometrium is broken down and shed. The endometrium is only found inside the uterus, but sometimes the cells similar to the endometrium grow inside other parts of the female reproductive organs such as the ovaries or fallopian tubes. This is known as endometriosis. In rare cases, the endometrial tissue is found in other parts of the body outside the female reproductive organs.
Other than endometrium, the endometrium-like tissue which is found outside the uterus, also reacts to hormones and begins to bleed during menstruation. This sometimes causes blood to be trapped in spots causing irritation, formation of cysts, benign or malignant tumours, or development of scar tissue. Sometimes endometriosis can also cause infertility.
