Key Takeaways
- Endometriosis means uterus-like tissue growing outside the womb — causing painful periods, painful relations and sometimes infertility.
- It affects roughly 1 in 10 women; average delay to diagnosis is years because 'painful periods' is too often normalised.
- Diagnosis is by laparoscopy (which can also treat it in the same sitting); ultrasound picks up typical cysts (endometriomas).
- Treatment is individualised: pain control, hormone suppression, or fertility-sparing laparoscopic excision.
Symptoms That Point to Endometriosis
- Period pain that stops you attending work/college or needs escalating painkillers
- Pain during or after intimacy
- Painful bowel movements or urination, especially around periods
- Difficulty conceiving, sometimes with no other symptom at all
- Chronic pelvic pain and fatigue
Fertility and Endometriosis — Both Can Be Protected
The biggest fear women voice is: 'will I lose my chance of motherhood?' The answer at Dhaara: surgery for endometriosis is performed fertility-first — laparoscopic excision of endometriotic tissue and cysts with careful ovarian-preservation technique, avoiding unnecessary removal of healthy ovarian tissue. If pregnancy is your priority, we map out medical vs surgical vs assisted routes with you, honestly and in sequence.

What Is Endometriosis?
Endometriosis is a condition in which tissue similar to the uterine lining (endometrium) grows outside the uterus — most commonly on the ovaries, behind the uterus, on the pelvic lining and around the bowel or bladder. Like the uterine lining, this tissue responds to hormones: it thickens, breaks down and bleeds with every cycle, but the blood has nowhere to go. The result is inflammation, scarring (adhesions) and severe pain.
Endometriosis affects roughly 1 in 10 women of reproductive age and is one of the leading causes of period pain that does not respond to usual painkillers and of difficulty conceiving. At Dhaara Speciality Hospital, Yelahanka, Dr. Prathima Srinivas — Gynecologist and Obstetrician — provides complete endometriosis care, from medical therapy to advanced laparoscopic surgery.
Symptoms
- Painful periods (dysmenorrhoea) — often severe and worsening over the years
- Pain during or after intimacy (dyspareunia)
- Chronic pelvic pain, including between periods
- Painful bowel movements or urination during periods
- Heavy or irregular bleeding
- Difficulty conceiving — endometriosis is found in up to 30–50% of women with infertility
- Fatigue, bloating and nausea around periods
Diagnosis
- Pelvic ultrasound — detects ovarian endometriomas ("chocolate cysts") and deep disease; often the first test
- MRI pelvis — maps deep infiltrating endometriosis before surgery
- Diagnostic laparoscopy — the definitive test: a keyhole camera directly visualises and biopsies implants; can be combined with treatment in the same sitting

Because period pain is extremely common, endometriosis is invisible on ordinary scans, and its severity doesn't correlate with what surgeons find. If pain disrupts your life monthly, insist on a gynaecological evaluation — that's exactly what we take seriously.
It is a chronic, recurring condition — surgery removes existing disease and hormones suppress new growth, but recurrence over years is possible. A long-term plan (surgery + suppression + fertility timing) keeps it controlled; many women have years of symptom-free life.
No — many women with endometriosis conceive naturally. Risk rises with severity and ovarian involvement. Fertility-sparing surgery improves conception chances; where needed, we time surgery with your pregnancy plans rather than against them.
It is a keyhole (minimally invasive) operation: 3–4 small cuts, 1–2 days in hospital, back to normal activity in 1–2 weeks. Despite small incisions, it is a technically demanding procedure — choose a surgeon who does it regularly.
Painkillers alone treat the symptom while disease can silently progress and affect ovaries and tubes. A combined plan — pain control, hormone therapy and timely surgery when indicated — protects both comfort and fertility.
