Endometriosis is a condition that affects females’ quality of life and general well-being. It happens when tissue that is similar to that of endometrial tissue grows outside the uterus. It can be difficult to diagnose and carries several complications such as fibroid and hormone dependent diseases. It can block the fallopian tubes, creating a breeding ground for cysts formation due to trapped blood. Tissues can also fuse, leading to changes in the reproductive organs.

The tissue can develop anywhere in the body, but it usually affects the pelvic area, including:
• The ovaries
• The fallopian tubes
• Tissues that support the uterus
• The outside of the uterus

Endometriosis is characterized with severe pain conditions, relatively heavy and unusual menstrual bleeding and even infertility, which may affect a person’s chances of becoming pregnant.
