This Nature Reviews Disease Primers article provides an overview of endometriosis, a common condition in women characterized by endometrium-like tissue outside the uterus, and describes its associations with pain and infertility. It focuses on summarizing the condition at a high level rather than reporting original experimental or patient-level methods. The paper’s main limitation is that, as a primer/overview, it does not present new study data within the provided text. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — it defines the condition and summarizes its core features, including pain and infertility.
