DAY NIGHT NEWS
Endometriosis is a disease which is considered an enigma because of its high occurrence and its adverse effects on quality of life of our women. 1 out of every 10 women is suffering from this disease and about 190 million women worldwide are affected from this.
The main problems of endometriosis are its varied symptoms like severe pain during periods, bloating, constipation, infertility, fatigue etc. which lead to its late diagnosis. According to a study the diagnosis of endometriosis may get delayed by about 7-8 years.
This disease badly affects quality of life of our girls and women as girls often miss schools because of severe dysmenorrhea and many women feel unable to attend offices and duties.
It also affects fertility and lead to damage to ovary and also may affect uterus.
