ENDOMETRIOSIS: Natural vitamin supplement

Endometriosis affects significant part of women of child-bearing age.
Endometriosis is a condition where cells that make up the lining of the uterus grow outside the uterus.

Most commonly it spread on the fallopian tubes, ovaries, or tissue lining the pelvis. This tissue behaves similarly to that within the uterus. As it thickens, breaks down and bleeds each month with the menstrual cycle.

However, because there is nowhere for this blood to exit the body, it becomes trapped, irritates surrounding tissue, and may cause scar tissue to form, which is painful.
While endometriosis can be painful, it doesn’t increase the risk of uterine cancer or ovarian cancer, and there are a number of lifestyle approaches and natural remedies that can be very helpful.
