Endometriosis is a chronic condition where tissue similar to the uterine lining grows outside the uterus, causing inflammation, pelvic pain, heavy periods, and potential fertility problems. It affects nearly 10% of women of reproductive age and can interfere with reproductive organs by causing scar tissue, adhesions, and hormonal imbalance. Early diagnosis and proper management are essential to reduce complications and improve quality of life. Dr Thejaswini J, Consultant Obstetrician and Gynaecologist at Motherhood Hospital, E-City, emphasizes that persistent pelvic pain, severe menstrual cramps, or fertility concerns should be evaluated early to ensure timely treatment and protect reproductive health.
