Endometriosis
In simple terms, endometriosis occurs when tissue similar to the lining of your womb grows outside of it, often on your ovaries or fallopian tubes. This abnormal tissue behaves like the womb lining, thickening and bleeding during your menstrual cycle, but since it has nowhere to exit, it can lead to significant discomfort and complications.
