Regular follow-up and monitoring

Causes of Endometriosis
While the exact cause of endometriosis is still being researched, several factors are thought to contribute, including:
Genetic predisposition
Hormonal imbalances (especially estrogen dominance)

Endometriosis symptoms can vary in intensity and may include:
Pelvic pain, especially before and during menstruation
Heavy or irregular menstrual bleeding
Pain during intercourse
Gastrointestinal issues (e.g., bloating, nausea)
Chronic fatigue
Infertility or difficulty conceiving

Affected Areas:
Typically, endometriosis affects the pelvic region:
Ovaries, Fallopian tubes

Peritoneum (the lining of the pelvic cavity)

The bowel or bladder
The diaphragm
Other abdominal or even extra-pelvic structures
