Endometriosis is a very painful condition which is found in women of childbearing age, endometriosis occurs when the tissue which lines the uterus starts to grow outside of the uterus. This tissue will usually grow on the fallopian tubes, outer surface of the uterus, the bowels and very occasionally it can develop onto other organs in the body.
These growths are called implants and they will continue to grow, bleed and break down just as the tissue does inside the uterus, which causes the woman’s monthly period.
