Endometriosis Treatment in South Florida<\/h1>\n

Endometriosis is a benign disease characterized by endometrial tissue, similar to the tissue lining your uterus or womb, growing outside of your uterus or womb. Often found on your ovaries, fallopian tubes, tissue lining the pelvic organs, intestines, or distant organs, this tissue can cause most commonly pelvic pain, ranging from mild to severe, painful sexual intercourse, and infertility. Pain is often an indicator of endometriosis, a disease that affects about 200 million women worldwide, though the severity of the pain does not necessarily correlate to the extent of the condition.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
