| Chronic disease affecting women, in which tissue similar to the mucous membrane of the uterus (endometrium) accumulates in the alvus. This tissue can bleed and grow cyclically. Endometriosis may be connected to heavy pains in the preabdomen and is one of the most common causes for infertility. Currently, the only accurate diagnostic method is surgery. |
