Endometriosis

 

Endometriosis is a condition in which the lining of the uterus called the endometrium extends outside the uterus, and attaches to and irritates organs in your abdomen. This tissue can travel into the abdomen, on the ovaries, the fallopian tubes, and many other areas in the pelvic cavity. Endometrial growths may be found on the bladder, bowel, vagina, cervix, vulva, and in previous abdominal surgical scars.

Some of the symptoms of Endometriosis may include:

  • Painful Menstrual Periods
  • Pain During or After Urination
  • Pelvic Pain Unrelated to Menstruation
  • Heavy, Prolonged Menstrual Periods
  • Pain During and After Sexual Intercourse
  • Infertility
  • Pain During or After Bowel Movements

Dr. Joseph Gauta specializes in the medical and surgical management of Endometriosis. To correctly diagnose endometriosis in most cases requires a surgical procedure done under anesthesia called laparoscopy.
