Description
Endometriosis is defined as the presence outside the uterine cavity of tissue similar to the uterine mucosa, which will be affected by hormonal changes during each subsequent menstrual cycle. Endometriosis is thus responsible for pelvic pain, which can be particularly incapacitating, as well as other symptoms depending on the location of the lesions. In some cases, endometriosis is also responsible for infertility. Symptoms have a considerable impact on the quality of life of sufferers, affecting not only their personal and marital lives, but also their professional and social lives.
