It spreads to the ovaries, fallopian tubes, and tissue lining of the pelvic area causing adhesions and scarring. Common symptoms include debilitating pelvic pain, excessive bleeding, long periods (more than seven days), nausea and vomiting, painful intercourse, and infertility. There is no cure, and there are no clear causes for the disorder. "
READ MORE ABOUT ONE WOMAN'S JOURNEY HERE We found this section of the article of interest: Acupuncture was the next step in my healing journey. According to the acupuncturist I saw, "Endometriosis is caused by uterine blood stagnation. The stagnation creates the ideal environment for illness. Acupuncture helps to break up the stagnation to promote better circulation for the blood to move freely. When illness develops, the body creates a new equilibrium to accommodate the new health condition.
