What is Endometriosis?
Endometriosis is a gynecological disorder in which tissue similar to the uterine lining grows on other internal parts of your body. When this tissue grows in unusual places, it can cause unpleasant symptoms that interfere with your daily life.
Endometriosis causes endometrial-like tissue to grow on other organs or structures. This tissue can develop in your abdomen, pelvis, or even your chest. This tissue is sensitive to hormones and can become inflamed during your menstrual cycle. These areas of endometrial-like tissue in your body can cause ovarian cysts, superficial lesions, deeper nodules, adhesions, and scar tissue.
Types of Endometriosis
There are mainly four types of endometriosis:
Superficial peritoneal endometriosis – The Peritoneum layer is a thin membrane that lines your abdomen and pelvis. It also protects the majority of the organs contained within these cavities. The endometrial tissue attaches to the peritoneum in this type, which is the least severe.
Endometriomas – These cysts are dark and filled with fluid. They’re also known as chocolate cysts. They differ in size and can appear in various parts of your pelvis or abdomen, but the ovaries are the most common.
Deeply infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) – Endometrial tissue has invaded the organs within or outside your pelvic cavity in this type. Your ovaries, rectum, bladder, and bowels may all be affected. It’s uncommon, but scar tissue can bond organs and make them stuck in one place.
Abdominal wall endometriosis – Endometrial tissue can grow on the abdominal wall in some cases. The cells may adhere to a surgical incision, such as a C-section incision.
Symptoms of Endometriosis?
You may need endometriosis treatment in Dubai if you experience any of the following symptoms:
- Constipation or diarrhea
- Excruciating sex fatigue
- Back pain while on your period

Causes of Endometriosis
Endometriosis has no known cause. Endometriosis has no known cause. Some experts believe that endometrial cells in menstrual blood may pass back through your fallopian tubes as well as into your pelvic cavity. Here, the cells adhere to your organs, and the condition is referred to as retrograde menstruation.
Other possible explanations include:
1) Peritoneal cell transformation. Experts believe that hormones or immune factors can also promote the transformation of peritoneal cells, which line the inside of the abdomen, into endometrial-like cells.
2) Embryonic cell differentiation. During puberty, hormones such as estrogen can transform embryonic cells — cells in their early stages of development — into endometrial-like cell implants.
Diagnosis
For an apt line endometriosis treatment in Dubai, it is crucial that you undergo a proper diagnosis.
At Healia Medical Centre, we are well-equipped with advanced diagnostic infrastructure so that none of your underlying causes go amiss:
Pelvic Examination – Our doctor may be able to feel cysts or scars behind your uterus during a pelvic exam.
Imaging tests – Tests such as an ultrasound, CT scan, or MRI can produce detailed images of your organs.
Laparoscopy – This entails our doctor making a small incision in your abdomen and inserting a thin tube with a camera on the end. They can see where the lesions are and how big they are.
Biopsy – During a laparoscopy, your doctor takes a sample of tissue, which is then evaluated under a microscope by a specialist to confirm the diagnosis.
Endometriosis treatment
Pain relievers – Our doctor may advise you to take an over-the-counter pain reliever. Many people benefit from non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) such as ibuprofen.
Hormones – Hormonal therapy brings down the amount of estrogen produced by your body and can cause your period to stop.
Our endometriosis experts may advise you to have surgery to remove most of the affected tissues. In some cases, surgery can alleviate symptoms while also increasing your chances of becoming pregnant. They may also use a laparoscope or perform standard surgery with larger incisions. Pain can sometimes return after surgery.
