Did you know that nearly ⅓ to ½ of women with Endometriosis experience difficulty conceiving?

Impaired fertility is the main complication that women have to face with Endometriosis.

Endometriosis is a medical condition where the tissues that line the uterus on the inside (the endometrium) tend to grow outside. Though the tissue has been displaced, it continues to act normally such as it thickens, then breaks down and with every menstrual cycle, it bleeds. However, because it is displaced, it gets trapped as it cannot get out of the body. The tissue surrounding the endometrial tissue becomes irritated thereby leading to scarred tissue or adhesion. All this causes pain and may increase in severity during periods.

Now let us take a look at how it affects fertility:

For a woman to conceive, an egg needs to be released from an ovary. The released egg must reach the fallopian tube to become fertilized by the sperm cell and then attach to the uterine wall. However, this whole process is disrupted during endometriosis. As endometriosis may result in obstructing the fallopian tube thus making it nearly impossible for the egg to reach the tube and stick to the sperm.

Though the exact cause for this condition is unknown, possible explanations hint towards reasons like retrograde menstruation, peritoneal cell transformation, surgical scar implantation, a disorder of the immune system, or transformation of the embryonic cell.
