What is Endometriosis and what are its Common Symptoms?
Endometriosis is a female health condition where the tissue that grows in the lining of the womb grows in other places such as the outer surface of the uterus, ovaries or Fallopian tubes. This can be the cause of painful, heavy periods medically known as dysmenorrhea.
If you have Endometriosis you can also have pelvic pain and cramping that can be experienced before the menstrual period. You may even experience pain with your bowel movements. Sexual intercourse can be painful because of Endometriosis, and getting pregnant with Endometriosis can be challenging.
1 in 10 women in the UK, which is about 1.5 million women suffer with Endometriosis (Source: Endometriosis UK). Endometriosis can affect a woman’s hormones and can often be the cause of chronic pain, bloating, mood fluctuation, heavy bleeding, fatigue and difficulty getting pregnant.
Conventional vs Natural Treatments for Endometriosis
