Endometriosis is a medical condition in women where the Endometrial-like cells start to appear in areas outside the uterus. These Endometrial-like cells respond to the female hormones just like the normal endometrial cells. The Endometrial cells are generally found in the fallopian tubes, ovaries and the tissues lining the pelvis. But when they start growing in other areas they might result in tumors, cysts and nodules.

These tumors and cysts might rupture with time causing much pain and discomfort. The patient usually experiences excruciating pain in the pelvic region. Sometimes it also happens that the patient may not experience any pain at all. This condition typically affects 5 – 6% of the female population usually in their reproductive years. The effect of this condition is usually infertility.
