Here at DiscovHER HEALTH, we care about treating woman with ENDOMETRIOSIS.
Endometriosis affects an estimated 1 in 10 women during their reproductive years, which is approximately 176 million women in the world.

Endometriosis occurs when tissue that is similar to the lining of the uterus (endometrium) grows in other parts of the body and causes chronic inflammation that can cause scarring. It affects an estimated 5-10% of all women. It is most commonly found in the pelvic cavity and ovaries. Less commonly, these lesions may grow on the intestines and bladder, and rarely in the lungs or other body locations. Growths of endometriosis are almost always benign (not cancerous).
No one knows the exact cause. It is highly likely that certain genes play a role, but there are many other factors. Experts do agree the hormone estrogen promotes the growth of endometriosis and treatment often focuses on lowering estrogen levels.
Pain in the pelvis, lower abdomen, or lower back.
Difficulty getting pregnant,
Pain during or after sex
Pain with bowel movements or urination
Constipation, diarrhea and bloating
The only way to diagnose endometriosis is with a surgical procedure called a laparoscopy to obtain a biopsy (sample of tissue). Laparoscopy allows surgeons to see the disease and take a biopsy that can be evaluated in a laboratory.
