Endometriosis effects over 13 million women every single year and many more women have it and don't even know it because they don't experience any signs or symptoms. In many cases, Endometriosis is only diagnosed during another procedure that leads to discovering Endometriosis is present. Endometriosis is when tissue that looks and acts like the lining of the uterus begins growing in areas outside of the uterus on the fallopian tubes, ovaries, bladder, and even the lining of the pelvic cavity. They are more commonly known as Endometrial Implants. However, there are a few signs and symptoms that you should watch for if you believe for any reason you are at risk for or may have Endometriosis. Painful periods are the biggest symptom. This pain might begin several days before your actual period and prolong itself until days after it has ended. It may either be light or extremely intense and frequently is located in the abdominal region along with the lower back. Pelvic pain during other times unrelated to your menstrual cycle is another thing to keep a close watch on. Many women experience pain when ovulating, sharp pains during sexual intercourse, or pain during bowel movements and urination. This is usually an indicator that the Endometriosis has spread to the respective regions and is beginning to cause problems. The body is using pain as a way to inform you that something needs to be fixed. However, the severity of the pain does not directly relate to how severe your case of Endometriosis is. You may have minimal pain with a severe case or vice versa. The only way to know is to be checked out by your doctor. Excessive or unusual bleeding is yet another thing to watch for. Extremely heavy periods or bleeding in between periods may signify that there is a problem within your reproductive system. Digestive symptoms are quite common in some cases due to the tissue manifesting itself on the bowels or in the intestines. These may include, but are not limited to, diarrhea, constipation, nausea, rectal pain, abdominal bloating, or pain along with flatulence. In more severe cases of Endometriosis, pain may develop in the bowels and kidneys as well. Pain may be constant or it could occur in cycles. It may be a dull pain that occurs all the time or it could be random bouts of sharp shooting pain. Each case has to be treated on an individual basis but the pain cycle is generally related to the menstrual cycle that the women is experiencing. Many women are diagnosed with Endometriosis when they see their Doctor about the possibility of being infertile. Often many of the Endometriosis signs and symptoms were thought to be separate concerns on their own. These symptoms don't mean that you have Endometriosis but have been known to be present along with the condition. They could be related to a completely different diagnosis altogether. At times Endometriosis may be mistaken for other conditions such as cysts on the ovaries or pelvic inflammatory disease. It isn't uncommon for it to be confused with irritable bowel syndrome either if the endometrial tissue has spread onto the bowels a well. Many other conditions may also be present with Endometriosis which can make it a big challenge to diagnose and treat as well. If you think you may have Endometriosis, book in to see your doctor and be sure to ask him or her whether they think you could have Endometriosis. If in doubt, you can also see an Endometriosis specialist. Endometriosis Specialists are becoming more and more common and you may find one close to you.
