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 ectopic endometrial tissue?
Ectopic endometrial tissue refers to endometrial cells that grow outside the uterus, commonly associated with a condition known as endometriosis. This tissue can be found on the ovaries, fallopian tubes, and other pelvic organs, leading to inflammation, pain, and potentially fertility issues. Unlike normal endometrial tissue, ectopic tissue does not shed during menstruation, which can cause further complications and chronic pain. Treatment options often include pain management, hormonal therapies, or surgical interventions.
