What are the dangers of endometriosis and what are its characteristics?

Endometriosis is a relatively serious disease, which is generally divided into stages. Different stages have different symptoms, different treatments, and different hazards. So, what are the hazards of endometriosis? What are its characteristics?

The occurrence of endometriosis is also related to the body's immune function, genetic factors, and environmental factors. Endometriosis generally causes the following hazards:

1. Cause uterine bleeding

The uterus of patients with endometriosis enlarges during menstruation or before and after menstruation. The increase in uterine volume and endometrial area can increase the chance of bleeding.

2. Cause infertility

In recent years, with the widespread use of intrauterine operation technology, some young women have also developed the disease among women aged 16-30, and women of childbearing age may also suffer from infertility.

3. Dysmenorrhea

Symptoms of menstrual abnormalities, infertility, dyspareunia, pelvic pain, low fever, increased vaginal discharge and menstrual pain may be caused by the ectopic endometrium bleeding with ovarian changes, which increases the local pressure outside the lesion, and the surrounding smooth muscle tissue is stimulated to spasm and contract, causing pain.

4. Pain during sexual intercourse

Endometriosis of the rectouterine fossa and vaginal rectal septum can cause deep tenderness during sexual intercourse, increased frequency of bowel movements during menstruation, and painful tenesmus.

Endometriosis is a common gynecological disease in women, characterized by the implantation of endometrial cells in abnormal locations. Endometrial cells should grow in the uterine cavity, but because the uterine cavity is connected to the pelvic cavity through the fallopian tube, endometrial cells can enter the pelvic cavity through the fallopian tube and grow ectopically.
