Endometriosis Awareness month 5

What is Endometriosis?

Endometriosis happens when tissue normally found inside the uterus grows in other parts of the body. It may attach to the ovaries, fallopian tubes, the exterior of the uterus, the bowel, or other internal parts. As hormones change during the menstrual cycle, this tissue breaks down and may cause pain around the time of your period and longterm painful adhesions or scar tissue. More than 5.5 million American women have symptoms of endometriosis. #shorts #endometriosis #endometriosisawarenessmonth #endometrialcancer #endométriose #webmd #womenhealth
