Good morning,
Grace and peace be unto you!
Our focus today is on endometriosis.
Endometriosis occurs when tissue that acts a lot like the lining of your uterus—called endometrium—starts growing outside of your uterus, where it doesn't belong.
These out-of-place growths, called lesions or implants, can cause severe pain and inflammation throughout the month.
The most common symptoms of endo are:
*Pain before and during periods (usually worse than “normal” menstrual cramps)
*Pain during or after sexual activity
*Painful urination/bowel movements during periods
*Fatigue
*Infertility
*Heavy bleeding
Other gastrointestinal upsets such as diarrhea, constipation, nausea
In addition, many women with endometriosis suffer from:
*Allergies
*Chemical sensitivities
*Frequent yeast infections
Many women with endo also experience a range of immune disorders, including asthma, eczema, and certain autoimmune diseases. Infertility affects about 30-40% of women with endo and is a common result with the progression of the disease.
Diagnosis is considered uncertain until proven by laparoscopy, a surgical procedure done under anesthesia. A laparoscopy usually shows the location, size, and extent of the growths. This helps the doctor and patient make better treatment choices.
