Endometriosis Pictures Slideshow: A Visual Guide to Symptoms, Stages and Treatments on MedicineNet.com: "What is Endometriosis?
Endometriosis occurs when tissue normally found inside the uterus grows in other parts of the body. It may attach to the ovaries, fallopian tubes, the exterior of the uterus, the bowel, or other internal structures. As hormones change during the menstrual cycle, this tissue breaks down and may cause painful adhesions, or scar tissue. More than 5.5 million American women have symptoms of endometriosis."
