What is endometriosis ??

It seems like you’re referring to endometriosis, a medical condition in which tissue similar to the lining inside the uterus (called the endometrium) grows outside the uterus. Endometriosis is the condition in which endometrial tissue is found outside the uterus sometime it may be found outside of reproductive tract, gastrointestinal tract and even the lungs. This condition can cause pain, especially during menstruation, and sometimes leads to fertility problems.
