This 2025 IntechOpen book, edited by Wei Wu and Rong Ju, provides a broad overview of endometriosis, covering environmental risk factors, symptoms, proposed causes, and underlying biological processes. It discusses diagnosis and molecular mechanisms, and reviews treatment options including hormonal therapies and surgery tailored to disease severity and location, alongside multidisciplinary approaches to pain management.
