Understanding Endometriosis

Understanding Endometriosis

Endometriosis is a condition whereby tissue normally located on the surface of the uterine wall (endometrium) migrates into areas such as the muscle tissue of the uterus, the Fallopian tubes, the surface of the ovaries and even into the pelvic cavity. This tissue is responsive to the surges of estrogen encountered during the menstrual cycle. The tissue will swell during the month and bleed at the same time of menses. Unlike endometrial tissue (the tissue lining of the uterus) which sheds into the uterine cavity, the endometriosis bleeds into the intercellular spaces and has nowhere to go. The condition is painful, often debilitating and may greatly hinder fertility.

Endometriosis has various degrees of severity and current treatment is aimed at symptom management. Unfortunately natural progesterone is rarely offered as an option. Endometriosis is a condition at the extreme end of the scale of estrogen dominance. The underlying cause is progesterone deficiency. Treatment with high dose progesterone cream, even in severe cases usually achieves improvements in the condition. Natural progesterone cream offers a viable alternative to current mainstream endometriosis treatments because it safely tempers the stimulating effects of estrogen.
