Who is likely to have endometriosis?
There are several things that have said to be the cause of endometriosis. Although endometriosis can occur at pretty much any time in a woman's reproductive life, the most common ages are from twenty five to twenty nine. Some studies show that it is thought to be a hereditary factor. When a woman is exposed to increased menstruation, her possibility of developing endometriosis is higher.

Does endometriosis cause bleeding?
Yes, endometriosis can cause bleeding, particularly during menstruation. Women with endometriosis may experience heavy menstrual bleeding (menorrhagia) or bleeding between periods due to the presence of endometrial-like tissue outside the uterus. This tissue responds to hormonal changes, leading to inflammation and bleeding in the surrounding areas. Additionally, some women may experience pain and discomfort along with these bleeding episodes.

What is Retrograde menstruation?
Retrograde menstruation is when the blood and uterine tissue expelled during menstruation travels backwards up into the cervix. This may include the blood and uterine tissue flowing up into the fallopian tubes and elsewhere in the abdomen. This was believed to be a cause of Endometriosis however research has largely rejected this idea.
Umbilical hernia endometriosis?
Endometrial tissue lines the uterus. Each month, in tune with the menstrual cycle, the endometrial tissue thickens and is shed during menstruation. If you have endometriosis, it means that the same kind of tissue that lines your uterus is also growing in other parts of your body, usually in the abdomen. This can cause scar tissue to build up around your organs. Endometriosis may cause severe pain and abnormal bleeding, usually around the time of your period. Pain during intercourse is another common symptom. However, it is possible to have endometriosis and not have any symptoms. Endometriosis is a leading cause of infertility(inability to get pregnant). Often it is not diagnosed until a woman has trouble getting pregnant.
What are the dangers of endometriosis?
Endometriosis may lead to internal bleeding, breakdown of the blood and tissue from lesions and inflammations. Eventually, this can cause pain, infertility, scar tissue formation, adhesions and many other problems. You can always find more information related to Endometriosis on the link provided below.
