Early symptoms of endometriosis

Endometriosis is a gynecological disease for women, and it is also a very common gynecological disease. Women's gynecological diseases are closely related to their daily living habits. Many women suffer from gynecological diseases because of unclean sexual life, and some women suffer from endometriosis due to long-term inflammatory stimulation. In fact, endometriosis has many symptoms. So what are the early symptoms of endometriosis?

Precisely because the more severe the endometriosis, the less obvious the symptoms, so it is even more necessary for us to clearly understand the symptoms of endometriosis, so that we can detect the disease early and treat it early to protect ourselves from the harm of the disease. So, what are the symptoms of endometriosis?

1. Dysmenorrhea: Patients complain that they did not have pain during menstruation in the past, but began to experience dysmenorrhea from a certain period, which can occur before, during and after menstruation. Some people have severe and unbearable dysmenorrhea and need to rest in bed or take pain medication. The pain often worsens with the menstrual cycle.

As estrogen levels continue to rise, the ectopic endometrium proliferates and swells. If affected by progesterone, it will bleed, irritate local tissues, and cause pain. If it is endogenous endometriosis, it can cause uterine muscle contraction, and dysmenorrhea is bound to be more obvious. In cases where there is no bleeding from ectopic tissue, dysmenorrhea may be caused by vascular congestion. After menstruation, the ectopic endometrium gradually shrinks and dysmenorrhea disappears. Endometriosis is significant clinically, but it is worth noting that not all patients with endometriosis suffer from dysmenorrhea. Patients without dysmenorrhea still account for about 25%. Women's psychological condition can also affect the perception of pain. However, we still need to pay great attention to dysmenorrhea.

2. Excessive menstruation: In endometriosis, the menstrual volume often increases and the menstrual period is prolonged. It may be caused by an increase in endometrium, but is often accompanied by ovarian dysfunction.

3. Infertility: Patients with endometriosis often suffer from infertility. The causal relationship between infertility and endometriosis is still controversial. Pelvic endometriosis can often cause adhesions around the fallopian tubes, affecting the pickup of oocytes or causing obstruction of the lumen. Or infertility may be caused by ovarian diseases affecting the normal ovulation. However, some people believe that long-term infertility and no menstrual cessation may lead to the chance of endometriosis; once pregnancy occurs, the ectopic endometrium is suppressed and atrophies.

Nowadays, women are prone to some bad diseases because there are too many gynecological diseases. Therefore, women must make corresponding improvements and control some deteriorating phenomena in time after suffering from gynecological diseases. Endometriosis can also cause great harm to women's fertility, so it is necessary to treat it in time to prevent the occurrence of infertility.
