This paper is a narrative review discussing classification, pathogenesis, diagnosis, and treatment of endometriosis, describing the disorder’s proposed origin and its association with pelvic pain and subfertility. It summarizes prevalence estimates, noting an approximate 10% prevalence in the general population and higher rates (30–40%) among symptomatic premenopausal women, and outlines theories such as ectopic implantation of menstrual tissue into the abdominal cavity via uterine tubes. It states that laparoscopy is considered the most preferable standard of diagnosis, supported by histological evaluation of surgical biopsies, and reviews prior history to illustrate the topic areas. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — it focuses on advances and controversies in endometriosis classification, pathogenesis, diagnosis, and treatment.

Abstract

Endometriosis is a perplex disorder with unascertained root and complex pathological processes. Generally, it has association with pelvic pain and sub fertility. The exact prevalence rate in common population is not truly while on the base of symptoms its prevalence rate is 10% for all and 30%-40% for symptomatic premenopausal women1 it is described by the many theories such as ectopic implantation of menstrual shreds flow to the abdominal cavity through the uterine tubes. Laparoscopy is considered most preferable standard of diagnosis of endometriosis proved by the histological performances of surgical biopsies. Further, this article will illustrate the pathogenesis, treatment, diagnosis of endometriosis by reviewing the previous history.
