Endometriosis
July 29th 2011 05:56
Endometriosis is a condition in females where endrometrial cells, typically found in the uterine cavity, are deposited in inappropriate locations. Endometriosis is a condition in which the uterine lining grows on other parts of the body (typically in the pelvic area). These cells are intended to line the uterine cavity, but often during years of reproduction an egg implantation outside of the uterus will cause the endometrial cells to deposit outside of the uterus. The most common symptom is pelvic pain. This pain correlates to a women's menstrual cycle and can be severe and in some cases debilitating. Endometriosis affects women in their reproductive years. Endometriosis can be treated with medications, such as, NSAIDS and other anit-imfammatories.
