Endometriosis is a debilitating whole-body disease in which tissue similar to but not the same as the endometrium is found throughout the body. 200 Million Worldwide suffer from the disease which can cause menstrual cramping, infertility, miscarriage, bowel dysfunction, urinary dysfunction, and life-long chronic pain.
