What is "endometriosis"?

Endometriosis is a condition where tissue similar to the lining of the uterus grows outside the uterus, typically on the ovaries, fallopian tubes, or other pelvic organs. This can cause pain, especially during menstrual periods, and may lead to infertility. The exact cause of endometriosis is not fully understood, but it is thought to involve a combination of genetic, hormonal, and immune factors. Treatment options for endometriosis include pain medication, hormone therapy to control the menstrual cycle, and surgery to remove the abnormal tissue. While there is no cure for endometriosis, symptoms can often be managed effectively with proper medical care.
