About Endometriosis & Uterine Fibroids

Endometriosis is a painful condition in which the uterine tissues grow outside of the uterus. The abnormal growth sheds and bleeds monthly with every menstrual cycle however, due to the growths being outside of the uterus, it does not easily leave the body. An estimated 10% of women in their reproductive age suffer from Endometriosis cysts. The results are extreme menstrual pain to the point of disability, abnormal vaginal pain, pain during intercourse and chronic back and pelvic pain.

Another condition that resembles Endometriosis cysts is Uterine Fibroids. These are noncancerous growths inside and around the uterus that can be just painful. It affects around 26 million women with childbearing potential. Uterine Fibroids can cause extreme discomfort in the pelvic region, irregular and abnormal bleeding, and anemia. The condition is sometimes not detected until a pelvic exam is done because it usually does not have any symptoms. Masses of uterine fibroids are known to change the shape of the uterus.

Many of the symptoms of Uterine Fibroids and Endometriosis are similar so much so that endometriosis is usually mistaken for uterine fibroids. According to research, there is a connection between endometriosis and uterine fibroids. Both these conditions can occur together and can impact a woman’s fertility, negatively.
