The disease occurs when cells similar to those found in the endometrium (the inner lining of the uterus) grow outside the uterus, causing problems.<\/p>\n<p>These tissues usually appear in the pelvic area, where they can attach to the fallopian tubes, ovaries, and outside of the uterus. In some cases, the tissue can also be found in other parts of the body. Symptoms of endometriosis include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Severe cramps during periods<\/li>\n<li>Increased menstrual flow<\/li>\n<li>Pain during intercourse<\/li>\n<li>Painful emptying of the bladder or bowel during periods<\/li>\n<li>Pain on the back<\/li>\n<li>Gastrointestinal problems such as diarrhea, constipation and nausea<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Treatment of Endometriosis<\/h2>\n<p>Endometriosis is the cause of infertility in 24%-50% of women diagnosed with it. In mild to moderate cases, infertility is often temporary. Surgical removal of the tissue can restore fertility. Despite surgeries that relieve symptoms, there is no definitive cure and symptoms may return.<\/p>\n<p>Treatment of endometriosis may include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Monitoring<\/strong>: If the symptoms are mild.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Hormonal therapy<\/strong>: Birth control pills, birth control patch or vaginal ring to control estrogen.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Hormone blockers<\/strong>: To stop the production of estrogen by the ovaries.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Infertility and Endometriosis<\/h2>\n<p>When treating infertility caused by endometriosis, the Reproductive Medicine Specialist may use surgery and IVF. Surgery can improve the chances of conception in mild to moderate cases and restore fertility even in severe cases. IVF is the best option for severe cases of endometriosis.<\/p>\n<h2>The causes of endometriosis<\/h2>\n<p>The exact causes of endometriosis remain unknown, but there are several hypotheses:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Genetic factors<\/li>\n<li>Disorders of the immune system<\/li>\n<li>Previous abdominal surgery<\/li>\n<li>Hormonal imbalance<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Ask for Endometriosis Help<\/h2>\n<p>Endometriosis research continues and there are many promising developments. If you experience symptoms of endometriosis or suspect you have it, see your doctor. Early diagnosis can help preserve your fertility.<\/p>\n<p>For more information and specialized treatment for infertility, contact the Center for Reproductive Medicine &amp; Fetal Medicine \u201dDr. Alexander Trajan&quot;.
