It is estimated that 10% of young women suffer from endometriosis. However, the diagnosis of this disease is usually made around age 8, and most patients, upon receiving the diagnosis, ask:what is endometriosis?
Despite the fact that the number of associations of people affected by endometriosisAlthough various rallies and events have been held to raise awareness of the disease and demand more research, it remains unknown to most of society and the number of medical professionals specializing in endometriosis is still very low.
The lack of specialized medical professionals and the false belief that acute menstrual pain is normal mean that women go years without being properly diagnosed, allowing the disease to progress and diminishing the quality of life of the woman who, on some occasions, cannot carry out her daily activities due to severe pain, nausea or vomiting and fatigue.
In fact, many women do not seek medical advice until other symptoms appear, such as infertility or discomfort during sexual relations.
