Endometriosis and its stages
This is a female reproductive disorder in which women experience the abnormal growth of endometrial cells that are the same as uterine cells but are in a different location than the uterus. This endometrial tissue starts growing in the bowel, ovaries, and tissues lining the pelvis, and in rare cases can also spread to the pelvic region. The hormonal fluctuations stimulated by periods affect the cervical tissue and cause pain and inflammation. The endometrial tissue will grow, thicken, and break down, and that broken one has nowhere to go and thus gets trapped in the pelvis and causes irritation, scar formation, fertility issues, and painful menstrual cycles. There are four stages of endometriosis:
- Stage 1 : At this stage, there will be minor wounds and show endometrial implants on the ovary. At this stage, it may or may not be characterized by inflammation in or around the pelvic cavity.
- Stage 2 : At this stage, it involves shallow implant and light lesions on the pelvic lining and the ovary.
- Stage 3 : At this stage, it may or may not involve lesions and is characterized by deep implants on the pelvic lining and the ovary.
- Stage 4 : At this stage, it involves deep implants on the ovaries and pelvic lining with or without lesions on the bowels and fallopian tubes.
