À propos de ce contenu audio
This episode is a comprehensive overview of endometriosis, a chronic condition affecting reproductive-age women and girls.
Endometriosis involves tissue similar to the uterine lining growing outside the uterus, leading to various symptoms such as severe pelvic pain, heavy periods, and infertility. While the exact cause remains unknown, contributing factors like retrograde menstruation and genetics are discussed.

The texts emphasize that there is no cure, but treatments aim to manage symptoms and can include pain medication, hormone therapy, and surgical interventions like laparoscopy or, in severe cases, hysterectomy. Diagnosis often involves a physical exam, imaging, and definitive surgical confirmation, with all sources highlighting the importance of early diagnosis and management despite existing challenges in healthcare access and awareness.
