What is Endometriosis and How Does it Affect Fertility?
[Endometriosis]() is a condition where tissue similar to the lining of the uterus grows outside the uterine cavity, often on the ovaries, fallopian tubes, and pelvic lining. This can result in inflammation, scarring, and adhesions, which can compromise fertility. Symptoms may include severe menstrual pain, chronic pelvic pain, and infertility. Treatment options range from pain management and hormonal therapies to surgical removal of endometrial implants. In some cases, assisted reproductive technologies like [IVF]() are recommended.
