Understanding Endometriosis: Causes, Symptoms, and Diagnosis

[vc_row el_class=”cstm_container”][vc_column][vc_column_text]Endometriosis is a painful disorder wherein tissue similar to the lining of the uterus grows in the exterior part of the uterus. This tissue becomes thick, breaks down, and bleeds with each period. It can cause severe pain in the pelvis and make it harder for women to get pregnant. It may start at a woman’s first menstrual period and last until menopause (the end of menstrual cycles, usually diagnosed after you have missed your periods for almost a year).

Endometriosis leads to inflammation and forms scar tissues in the pelvic region & other parts of the body. If you notice or experience any unusual symptoms, pain during sexual intercourse, or chronic pelvic pain, do not hesitate to reach out to the best hospital for effective diagnosis and treatment- Eva Hospital.

Causes of Endometriosis

According to the World Health Organization (WHO), endometriosis has no proper cause. However, the common causes and factors associated with the disease are mentioned below:-

  • Retrograde Menstruation

As per the theory, menstrual blood flows backward through the fallopian tubes into the pelvic area. Due to this, endometrial cells can grow on the organs in the pelvic region. 

  • Genetic Factors

If the disease runs in your family, you may have a high risk of developing endometriosis. Thus, if you feel anything unusual, you must visit Eva Hospital, the best hospital for effective gynecologic treatment.

  • Hormonal Imbalance

The two key female reproductive hormones are estrogen and progesterone. Due to higher levels of any of these hormones, there can be an imbalance and promote the growth of endometrial tissue outside the uterus. 

  • Immune System Problems

If your immune system fails to minimize or eliminate any misplaced endometrial cells, endometrial tissue may grow in the pelvic region.

Diagnosis and Treatment 

Ensure precise and speedy diagnosis by choosing the best hospital for your needs. Distinct means to diagnose you for endometriosis are mentioned below:-

  • Pelvic Examination

The gynecologist thoroughly checks your pelvis area for abnormalities, such as cysts on reproductive organs and scars behind the uterus. You must note that it is not possible to feel small areas of endometriosis unless cysts cause it. 

  • Ultrasound

The best healthcare provider may use high-frequency sound waves to create images inside your body. The imaging test may help the doctor know if you have endometriosis. 

  • Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)

To create detailed images of the organs and tissues inside your body, MRI is used by doctors. This helps surgeons get detailed information about the size and location of the endometrial implant, thereby helping them do surgical procedures effectively.

  • Laparoscopy

In this procedure, a surgeon makes a tiny incision near your navel and inserts an instrument to look for signs of endometrial tissue outside your uterus.
