Understanding the Advanced Endometriosis Center
Endometriosis is a complex medical condition that affects millions of women around the globe, significantly impacting their quality of life and reproductive health. At the Advanced Endometriosis Center, we are devoted to providing comprehensive, compassionate care tailored to each woman's unique needs. Our expertise not only lies in the diagnosis and treatment of endometriosis but also in fostering a deeper understanding of the condition for both patients and their families.
What is Endometriosis?
Endometriosis occurs when the tissue similar to the lining inside the uterus, called endometrium, starts to grow outside the uterus. This may cause a variety of symptoms, including:
- Pelvic Pain: The most common symptom, often linked to the menstrual cycle.
- Menstrual Irregularities: Heavy periods (menorrhagia) or bleeding between periods.
- Infertility: Endometriosis is found in 30-40% of women who are infertile.
- Pain during Intercourse: Painful sexual activity, known as dyspareunia, may occur.
- Other Symptoms: Gastrointestinal issues, fatigue, and urinary problems.
Understanding these symptoms is critical in seeking a timely diagnosis and appropriate treatment options, which is why the Advanced Endometriosis Center emphasizes early detection and intervention.
