What are the dangers of endometriosis?

Endometrial dislocation is originally a cellular disease, which terminates the development of the uterus and causes the uterus to shift in the human body. This phenomenon can cause infertility and even frequent ectopic pregnancies. So for many patients with endometrial dislocation, do you know what the dangers of endometriosis are?

Dysmenorrhea: The clinical feature of endometriosis is progressive dysmenorrhea, which is a common and prominent feature. It is mostly secondary, that is, it begins with the occurrence of endometriosis. Patients complain that they did not have pain during menstruation in the past, but dysmenorrhea began to occur from a certain period, which can occur before, during and after menstruation. Some women have severe and unbearable dysmenorrhea and need to stay in bed or take medication to relieve the pain. The pain may even make them roll on the bed or bang their heads. The pain often worsens with the menstrual cycle and disappears when the menstruation ends.

Menstrual irregularities: Endometriosis patients often experience shortened menstrual cycles, increased menstrual flow, or prolonged menstrual periods, indicating that the patients have ovarian dysfunction. Irregular menstruation can be used as a diagnostic reference, but it has no value in differential diagnosis.

Pain during sexual intercourse: Pain during sexual intercourse may occur when there are ectopic endometrial nodules in the vaginal vault, nodules or adhesions in the rectal pit, or when the ovaries are adhered to the pelvic floor. When the fibrosis and contraction of the posterior lobe of the broad ligament are obvious, it can exogenously compress the ureter, causing it to be narrowed and blocked. Urinary system symptoms may also occur. In severe cases, hydroureter or hydronephrosis may occur.

Chocolate cysts: Endometriosis can also cause periodic shedding and bleeding. However, this blood cannot be discharged through the cervix like menstrual blood in the uterus, but is trapped in the ectopic area and continues to accumulate, causing lesions in the area and causing corresponding symptoms. If blood accumulates in the ovary and cannot be discharged, a cyst will form month after month. The water in the blood will be absorbed and condensed into brown mucus, thus forming a cyst that looks like chocolate.

Ectopic pregnancy: Ectopic endometrium can cause pelvic adhesions and fallopian tube obstruction. The fertilized egg can only implant and develop locally, increasing the probability of ectopic pregnancy.

Symptoms of periodic bladder irritation: When endometriosis lesions involve the bladder peritoneal folds or invade the bladder muscle layer, symptoms such as menstrual urgency and frequent urination will appear simultaneously. If the lesion invades the bladder mucosa (bladder endometriosis), there will be periodic hematuria and pain. Endometriosis Treatment
