Endometriosis: A Review of Clinical Diagnosis, Treatment, and Pathogenesis

Endometriosis is a condition that affects women of reproductive age, and it is distinguished by the development of endometrial-like tissue outside the uterine cavity. It is frequently accompanied by persistent pelvic discomfort and infertility. This investigation looks into recent findings on clinical manifestation to help doctors and improve women's health. PubMed and Google Scholar were used to review on clinical diagnosis of endometriosis. The search strategy contained the terms “endometriosis” and “clinical diagnosis.” All research articles published between 1960 and 2021 were included in the search. The findings were then categorized to summarize the evidence. There was a total of 29 instances of endometriosis discovered. The patients' ages varied from 20 to 45 years old, with a median of 28.8 years and a mean of 29.4±7.7 years. Dysmenorrhea is a common disorder among adolescent girls experiencing various physical and emotional symptoms which have a detrimental influence on their quality of life. In this study, scar endometriosis was shown to be the more common variety of endometriosis, with 50% of cases predominantly developing at the lower segment cesarean section (LSCS) scar site. As a result, women with endometriosis are more likely to have miscarriages, and the quality of their embryos declines as a result.
