Definition Endometriosis is a condition in which the tissue that normally lines the uterus (endometrium) grows in other areas of the body, causing pain, irregular bleeding , and frequently infertility The tissue growth typically occurs in the pelvic area, outside of the uterus, on the ovaries, bowel, rectum, bladder, and the delicate lining of the pelvis, but it can occur in other areas of the body as well.
Pelvic Laparoscopy
Endometriosis
Abnormal Menstrual Periods The cause of endometriosis is unknown. However, a number of theories have been proposed. The retrograde-menstruation theory proposes that endometrial cells (loosened during menstruation) may "back up" through the fallopian tubes into the pelvis, where they implant and grow in the pelvic and/or abdominal cavities.

African-American Non-sexually active female Endometriosis is commonly diagnosed in at least 15% of all women of reproductive age. Additionally, of women who experience infertility or dysmenorrhea, this disease is a factor in half. Yet, the origin and management of endometriosis remains controversial and frustrating. As a pain syndrome, misconceptions are continually being challenged.
A number of theories have been proposed to explain the development of endometriosis. Among the most common are: *Retrograde passage of endometrial tissue through the fallopian tubes with implantation on pelvic organs. Regurgitation of menstrual tissue can explain the predominance of endometriotic lesion in the cul-de-sac, the uterosacrals, and ovaries. *Lymphatic or hematological spread of endometrial tissue to parts of the body distant from the uterus.

Selenium
In cattle, endometriosis can be due to selenium deficiency. Since your cow can't give you any milk without having a baby first, dairymen well know to supplement all cows' feed with selenium. This is usually accomplished with a multimineral tablet the size of a microwave oven. Okay, it's a mineral-fortified salt block (after all, salt IS a mineral...) that can cows lick anytime they want. Human females should do as well, but they don't. We go out of our way to supply selenium to cattle, particularily in geographical regions that have selenium-poor soil (New York state is just one of these). Farmers simply must have healthy, fertile, easy-to-conceive, happily-pregnant, uncomplicated-delivering Bossys by the herd. The economics are obvious: farmer's cannot afford otherwise; a herd with endometriosis would be banckrupcy on the hoof. Women with endometriosis, on the other hand, mean economic success for all the many, many systems we have to capitalize on their sickness. Doctors, nurses, support staff, surgeons, hospitals, administrators, HMO's, insurance companies, pharmaceutical manufacturers, drug salespeople, and lots of others' jobs depend on people being unwell. The uterus has always been irresistable to money-medicine, and, with an estimated half a million unnecessary hysterectomies annually, I would say that little has changed. The secret to endometriosis is to see it for what it is: an end result of malunutrition.

by Elizabeth Smith, M.D.
A True Help for Endometriosis Mainstream physicians readily acknowledge that pregnancy retards endometriosis and in some cases cures endometriosis. Mainstream medicine also acknowledges that menopause cures endometriosis. Now, the United States Food and Drug Administration (U.S. FDA) has approved Natural Progesterone for endometrial (uterine lining) hyperplasia (proliferation). Many mainstream physicians are now using natural progesterone to fool the body into thinking it is pregnant ("pseudopregnancy") and stop endometriosis. Endometriosis is simply uterus innner lining (endometrium) that has ended up where it should not be. The endometrial cells (uterine inner lining) end up in the abdominal cavity next to the intestines, fallopian tubes, or on the ovary, and cycle through a menstrual period there causing endometriosis. What is it about pregnancy that cures endometriosis? There are three types of estrogen that the body produces: estradiol, estrone, and estriol. Estradiol produced during a normal menstrual cycle goes into the cell receptor and stimulates the cell receptor strongly stimulating endometriosis to grow. However, estrone and estriol go into the same receptor and stimulates it weakly blocking out estradiol (estradiol stimulates the endometriosis to grow). During pregnancy, the fetus produces precursors to estriol in the fetuse's adrenal glands. Then, the placenta produces estriol several orders of magnitude greater than the non-pregnant state. Progesterone is also produced by the placenta during pregnancy. "Pro" means "for" and gesterone means "gestation". During regular menstrual cycles, a woman produces 20 mg per day of progesterone. However, during the peak of pregnancy the woman's body produces 400 mg per day of progesterone.

Treatment Options for Endometriosis
Endometriosis can cause painful periods, persistent pain in the pelvic area, infertility, and other symptoms. Treatment aims to ease symptoms such as pain, and to treat infertility if required. This leaflet only discusses the treatment options. Another leaflet gives more general information about endometriosis.
What is endometriosis? The endometrium is the tissue that lines the inside of the uterus (womb). Endometriosis is a condition where endometrial tissue is found outside the uterus. It is 'trapped' in the pelvic area and lower abdomen. Endometriosis is not a cancerous condition and does not shorten life.
Not treating as an option If symptoms are mild and fertility is not an issue for you then you may not want any treatment. In about 3 in 10 cases, endometriosis clears and symptoms go without any treatment. You can always change your mind and opt for treatment if symptoms do not go, or become worse. Painkillers for endometriosis
  • Paracetamol taken during periods may be all that you need if symptoms are mild.
  • Anti-inflammatory painkillers (ibuprofen, diclofenac, naproxen, etc) may be better than paracetamol. However, some people get indigestion or other side-effects with anti-inflammatories.

An Excerpt from "Endometriosis a Natural Approach" by Jo Mears
What are the Symptoms?
"Pain is the most common sypmtom of endometriosis and the reason most suffers go to their doctors. However, the extent of the pain doesn't seem to be dependent on how much endometriosis you have, but rather on where it is. For instance, a small number of cysts in an area that is disturbed during intercourse may be much more painful than a large number of elsewhere. Most sufferers also report that their pain seems to get worse during their period, although many other sufferers also report constant pain. Generally, however, if the pain comes and goes during your menstrual cycle, it's highly suggestive of endometriosis.
There are five classic symptoms of endometriosis:
Painful Periods (known as dysmenorrhea)
Painful Intercourse (dyspareunia)
Pelvic pain, including painful bowel movements and constipation

Endometriosis can cause painful periods, persistent pain in the pelvic area, infertility, and other symptoms. The symptoms can range from mild to severe. Treatment options include painkillers, hormone treatments, and surgery.
What is endometriosis? The endometrium is the tissue that lines the inside of the uterus (womb). Endometriosis is a condition where endometrial tissue is found outside the uterus. It is 'trapped' in the pelvic area and lower abdomen.
Who gets endometriosis? About 1 in 10 women of childbearing age have some degree of endometriosis. Symptoms typically begin between the ages of 25-40. It can affect any woman. However:
  • Sometimes it runs in families, so endometriosis is more common in close blood relatives of affected women.
  • The risk of developing endometriosis is also higher in women who had their first period at an earlier age than average.
  • The oral contraceptive pill ('the pill') reduces the risk of developing endometriosis. This protective effect may persist for up to a year after stopping 'the pill'.

At the workshop "Basic Pathophysiology of Endometriosis" held in Washington in September 1991, a research paper was handed around that marked a surprising finding. It described a very high rate of endometriosis in rhesus monkeys that have been studied by the U.S. Air Force and National Aeronautics and Space Administration over many years to learn about the effects of radiation. The endometriosis developed spontaneously in 53 percent of the monkeys in the study group that received no radiation, the incidence of spontaneous endometriosis (endometriosis that developed on its own, not due to endometrium transplanted for research purposes) was 26 percent.

2002 review of links between endometriosis and dioxin
Endometriosis is a puzzling and sometimes debilitating disease that affects millions of women around the world Women suffering from endometriosis experience a variety of symptoms, with lower abdominal pain being most common. Pain can be especially intense before and during menstrual periods. Some women experience pain throughout the menstrual cycle; some during sex. The disease forces more than 100,000 hysterectomies each year in the United States alone, and the costs of the disease exceed $1 billion annually. Particularly troubling is the fact that it is showing up more than ever before in very young women. Given the poor quality of data, however, it is difficult to document long term trends or determine the precise number of women afflicted with the disease. Many cases go unreported and accurate, confirmed diagnosis requires an invasive surgical procedure. Nonetheless, specialists in the field believe that the prevalence of the disease has increased greatly since World War II. The National Institute of Child Health and Human Development estimates that endometriosis afflicts 10 to 20 percent of women of childbearing age in the U.S.

Koh, MD Reproductive Specialty Center Milwaukee, Wisconsin Definition: Endometriosis is a painful condition in which tissue somewhat resembling the lining of the uterus is found in other places in the body, usually in the pelvis. The misplaced cells form growths that can respond to ovarian hormones by producing secretions which can cause inflammation and sometimes bleeding. The results can be pain, infertility, scar tissue formation, and bowel problems. Symptoms: Common symptoms include pain during the menstrual flow, pain away from the menstrual flow, pain with intercourse or tampon insertion, and painful bowel movements. The pain can be sharp, stinging, burning or knifelike. Less common symptoms can include fatigue, pain with urination, and irritable bowel symptoms such as nausea, diarrhea, or constipation. Although a gynecologist may be suspicious that a patient has endometriosis surgery is required for diagnosis. Endometriosis is the most common cause of pelvic pain, but it is not the only cause. Even with no endometriosis in the pelvis, the uterus can still cramp severely, or the ovaries can still be painful from cysts or ovulation.

Testimony
I just wanted to drop a note regarding the significant improvement in my condition after using Progestelle. I have had endometriosis for the last fifteen years. My symptoms were terrible. Severe pain, nausea, headaches, backache for two weeks out of every month. My hormones were so out of sync that I was having hot flashes at 35. I read a book by Doctor Lee about progesterone and I bought some from my local health food store. The cream helped a little but not enough to make my life normal.
One day while web surfing I stumbled upon the Progestelle site and read that many progesterone creams contained ingredients which could make my condition worse. I checked the cream I was using and it contained the ingredients mentioned so I decided to try Progestelle to see if it made a difference. The change happened within one month. The majority of my symptoms are now gone and my life is back to normal. I don't even take pain medication for cramps anymore. This product is truly wonderful and I would recommend it to anyone suffering from a hormone related condition.
Sincerely
