Every year on March 13, an important event is celebrated – World Endometriosis Awareness Day.

What is endometriosis? This is a gynecological disease characterized by the movement of uterine tissue (endometrium) to other organs, thus causing inflammation.

• Symptoms: painful menstruation and ovulation, heavy bleeding, constant pain in the pelvis, feeling weak, etc.

the purpose World Endometriosis Awareness Day there is an increase in awareness about the disease. About 176 million women suffer from endometriosis, but very little is paid attention to and treated. The disease is the main cause of infertility, therefore the awareness of women of childbearing age about the danger of the disease and the need for its treatment is extremely important.

There are regular cases of incompetence of doctors, when the gynecologist does not attach importance to endometriosis and refuses treatment. In this case, the woman should change the doctor and not let the problem go by itself.
