Women suffering from endometriosis experience severe pelvic pain and may suffer from infertility. Endometrial-like cells develop outside the uterine cavity. These cells are influenced by hormonal changes and respond similarly as the cells lining the uterus. Causes of endometriosis remain unknown and treatments are limited to either surgery or the use of hormonal drugs."
