Endometriosis: Beyond the Uterus

Показать описание
Endometriosis is a chronic condition that affects millions of women worldwide. While often associated with the uterus, it can impact nearby organs like the bladder and colon. In endometriosis, tissue similar to the uterine lining grows outside the uterus, causing inflammation, pain, and scarring. This tissue can attach to organs like the bladder, bowel, and more, leading to diverse symptoms beyond painful periods.
Symptoms Beyond Menstrual Pain
Bladder: Endometriosis on the bladder can cause frequent urination, urgency, and pain, especially during menstruation.
Colon: When the colon or rectum is affected, symptoms like diarrhea, constipation, and painful bowel movements can occur, particularly during menstrual cycles.
Painful Intercourse: Endometrial growths on surrounding organs like the vagina or rectum can make intercourse painful.
The Impact on Surrounding Organs
Our upcoming animation shows how endometriosis can spread beyond the uterus, affecting organs like the bladder and colon. For example, endometrial tissue on the bladder can mimic symptoms of a UTI, while on the colon, it can cause gastrointestinal issues.
Living with Endometriosis
Endometriosis is more than just menstrual pain—it can deeply affect quality of life. Diagnosis often takes years due to the wide variety of symptoms. Although there’s no cure, treatments like hormonal therapy, pain management, and surgery can help manage symptoms. Early detection is key to improving outcomes.
Through our collaboration, we aim to raise awareness about endometriosis, focusing on how it can affect organs beyond the uterus. Stay tuned for our animation that visually explains this complex condition.
