Patient's question:
My aunt suffers from endometriosis. It is said that she has severe menstrual cramps, and she hasn't been able to get pregnant for two years after her divorce. I'd like to understand what the clinical manifestations of endometriosis are.Doctor's answer:
Endometriosis currently has an unclear etiology. There are many theories, among which the more widely accepted one is that active endometrial tissue implants and grows outside the uterine cavity, leading to a series of clinical symptoms. The main manifestations include heavy menstrual bleeding, dysmenorrhea, and dyspareunia. The specific location of the ectopic tissue may cause additional symptoms. Maintaining a good routine and increasing physical exercise during daily life can enhance the body's resistance and immunity.
