Endometriosis occurs when endometrial cells invade the pelvic cavity outside the uterus and continue to grow. These lesions or masses can be all different sizes and several different. The ovaries are one of the most common sites for the lesions to occur. These lesions are capable of distorting the large intestine, ovaries and fallopian tubes. Due to these complications, it can cause bowel problems and infertility

According to the Mayo Clinic, infertility is the most common complication of endometriosis. Approximately one-third to one-half of patients diagnosed with endometriosis has difficulties becoming pregnant. The endometrial lesions can interfere with the egg's ability to travel from the ovary, to the fallopian tubes and implantation as well. Another reason for impaired fertility is that the adhesions surrounding the uterus, pull it into a fixed, retoverted position. They can also interfere with conception itself. The lesions can block the path of the sperm and prevent it from ever reaching the egg to fertilize it. Despite these obstacles, many women with endometriosis are able to get pregnant

The fertility rates for women with a mild case of endometriosis without therapy are seventy-five percent. Because the fallopian tubes are often distorted and harmed from the endometrial lesions, women who suffer from severe cases of endometriosis often find it more difficult to conceive. For those who have severe cases of endometriosis, their fertility rate ranges from about thirty to forty percent. Surgery and ovulation induction are methods that are often used to help increase a woman's chance of becoming pregnant

Does endometriosis smell?

Endometriosis does not necessarily have an odor, or at least not one that you would be able to detect, since endometriosis is inside of you. If you are experiencing vaginal odor, it is most likely not endometriosis, and you should visit your OB GYN with your concerns.


Could you have endometriosis if you already have a child?

Yes. Having a child does not protect you from endometriosis. While having endometriosis often makes becoming pregnant difficult for women, becoming pregnant will also reduce the symptoms of endometriosis. So, being diagnosed with endometriosis after having a child makes it rather difficult for your doctor to determine whether you had endometriosis prior to the pregnancy or if it became an issue post-pregnancy - especially if you were positively diagnosed with endometriosis shortly after giving birth.
