Endometriosis
Endometriosis is not a disease like breast cancer that grabs attention, but it probably affects more women on Earth and doesn’t get the attention it requires.
What is Endometriosis ?
Endometriosis is accumulation of endometrial tissue growing outside the uterus and the uterine wall. Endometriosis most commonly involves ovaries, fallopian tubes and the tissue lining the pelvis. Disturbance in functioning of Apan vayu leads to misplacement of the endometrial tissue.
