Endometriosis symptoms –

  • One of the common symptoms of endometriosis is pelvic pain.

  • A female may face infertility issue
  • Heavy menstrual bleeding
  • Pain in the lower abdomen

The stages of Endometriosis –

  1. Minimal
  2. Mild
  3. Moderate
  4. Severe

These are four stages of Endometriosis, on the basis of the level of endometriosis issue; one can find its exact solution. In the first level of endometriosis, there are small wounds or lesions endometrial implants on the ovary and also inflammation around the pelvic cavity.

Mild endometriosis involves shallow endometrial implants on an ovary and the pelvic lining too. In the stage of moderate endometriosis, these occurrence starts taking place deeply on the female’s ovary & pelvic lining, more lesions, and wounds.

During the severe endometriosis level, there are more lesions on the fallopian tubes, deep and extreme endometriosis implants on the pelvic lining and ovaries.

What happens during Endometriosis disorder?

As discussed above, Endometriosis is a disorder, where the inner lining of the uterus starts developing outside the uterus that may be on the female’s ovaries, fallopian tubes, and pelvic cavity. This inner lining of the uterus is known as the endometrium.

It sometimes can spread beyond the female’s pelvic region (it is quite rare but found in some of the women). The tissue that starts growing outside of the female’s uterus is known as an endometrial implant. The disorder of endometriosis occurs when the tissue lining of the uterus (endometrium) starts spreading on the tissue lining of the pelvis, ovaries and the bowel.

Tissue that grows outside of the uterus, they continuously act as it normally would- this tissue becomes thick, gradually it breaks down and then it bleeds with the female’s menstrual cycle. This displaced tissue becomes trapped and has no way to exit from the body.

Tissue that has developed near the ovaries is termed as endometriomas. These all the displaced tissue (if not treated earlier) slowly and gradually causes irritation to the female, eventually form the scar tissue and adhesions that may affect pelvic tissue and other organs to stick with each other. The tissue that has trapped in the female’s pelvis and has no way to exit from the body, can cause –

  • Irritation
  • Adhesions
  • Fertility-related problem
  • Extreme pain during menstruation
  • Formation of the scars

Although the exact cause of this disorder is not proven yet or not certain, possible explanations by the researchers are given below –

  • Retrograde Menstruation – this happens when the female’s menstrual blood starts flowing back through the fallopian tubes into the pelvic cavity instead of making exit from the vagina.
  • Some of the cells in the body outside of the female’s uterus may change to become similar kind of cells, which lines the uterus
  • Surgical scar implantation
  • Immune system disorder
  • Endometrial cell transport
