It is a painful disorder that involves the woman’s ovaries, fallopian tubes and the tissue lining the pelvis. It is rare for the endometrium to stretch the pelvic organs.

Though most women have stomach cramps during their periods, but the women who suffer from endometriosis, experience a pain that’s far worse. Pain while urination and bowel movements are also common.

    Risk Factors

    It is estimated that Endometriosis is a disorder that 3-9% of the female population and develops after puberty only. The biggest risk factor is pain, but you need to know the other factors too.
    Though the symptoms may show at puberty, but it mostly affects women in the age bracket of 25 to 40 years.
    It can be genetic. If your mother, grandmother or sister have it, you may get it too.
    A pregnant woman has lesser chances of developing the disorder. If during periods you have shorter cycles, heavier and longer periods or in case your periods started at a very early age, you may want to consult your doctor.
