Endometriosis is a pathological condition in which tissue similar to the endometrium (the inner lining of the uterus) grows outside the uterus. This condition most commonly occurs in women of reproductive age.
The exact causes of endometriosis are not established, but genetics, hormonal disorders, immune factors, and environmental factors are believed to be contributing factors to this condition.
Diagnostic methods for endometriosis include gynecological examination, ultrasound, magnetic resonance imaging, and laparoscopy.
Treatment for endometriosis may include the use of medications, surgical intervention, and physiotherapy.
Endometriosis treatment is carried out by a gynecologist-endocrinologist.
