Endometriosis specialists en Brooklyn

Endometriosis is a disease that affects women, usually between the age of 25 and 40. This disorder is one of the main causes of infertility among women.

It never appears before puberty and always ends at the time of menopause due to a lack of ovarian hormones. The incidence of endometriosis is higher in infertile women, between 25-40 %, while in the general population, endometriosis has an incidence of 3 – 10 %.

Endometriosis is characterized by the growth of uterine tissue outside of the endometrium. This uterine tissue grows inside of the myometrium or even outside of the uterus.

Internal Endometriosis – When the uterine tissue grows inside of the myometrium, it is called Adenomyosis or Internal Endometriosis.

External Endometriosis – When the uterine tissue grows outside of the uterus, it is called External Endometriosis. The uterine tissue can be found almost in every part and organ of the body, but it is more common in the ovaries, peritoneum, rectum, intestine, vagina, vulva, bladder, liver, etc.

Until today the real cause of pelvic endometriosis is not known. However, there are several theories that try to explain it. The most acceptable theories include:

• Metaplasic theory
• Implantation theory
• Metastatic theory
• Surgical scar implantation
• Immune system disorder.
