"There is an illness that attacks women that is called endometriosis which can be controlled by birth controlling attention.
Endometriosisis defined as a gynecological medical condition in which cells from the lining of the uterus (endometrium) appear and flourish outside the uterine cavity, most commonly on the ovaries.
The uterine cavity is lined by endometrial cells, which are under the influence of female hormones. These endometrial-like cells in areas outside the uterus (endometriosis) are influenced by hormonal changes and respond in a way that is similar to the cells found inside the uterus. Symptoms often worsen with the menstrual cycle.
Endometriosis is typically seen during the reproductive years; it has been estimated that endometriosis occurs in roughly 5 to 10% of women. Symptoms may depend on the site of active endometriosis. Its main but not universal symptom is pelvic pain in various manifestations. Endometriosis is a common finding in women with infertility. How can these politicians be so insensitive and unconcern?
Nonetheless, Santorum continues to defends himself as he tried to justify his action. In that broadcast interview he said; "I am talking about his world view, and the way he approaches problems in this country. I think they're different than how most people do in America.”

Female Sexual Function Improves After Lesion Surgery D.I.E.
Women with deep infiltrating endometriosis who undergo laparoscopic excision and postoperative combined oral contraceptive therapy have improved postoperative sexual function, according to a study published online Feb. 9 in The Journal of Sexual Medicine.
THURSDAY, Feb. 16 (HealthDay News) -- Women with deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) who undergo laparoscopic excision and postoperative combined oral contraceptive (COC) therapy have improved postoperative sexual function, according to a study published online Feb. 9 in The Journal of Sexual Medicine.
Mohamed Mabrouk, M.D., of the University of Bologna in Italy, and colleagues conducted a prospective study of 106 women with DIE to evaluate the impact of laparoscopic excision and postoperative COC therapy on sexual function.

Gene variant linked to endometriosis
YALE (US) — Researchers may have identified a genetic basis of endometriosis, a condition that causes millions of women chronic pelvic pain and infertility.
The Yale University researchers’ discovery of a new gene mutation provides hope for new screening methods.
Published in the journal EMBO Molecular Medicine, the study explored an inherited mutation located in part of the KRAS gene, which leads to abnormal endometrial growth and endometrial risk.

Recurrence of Endometriosis and hip pain
I knew it! I have been trying to tell docs of my hip pain for 30 years now and have been brushed off or stared at blankly...I just love a little validation! Recurrence of Endometriosis??? I d on't know...what I have had happen to me is they had never been able to fully excise my endo and from what I read I am not sure it can all be visualised during the time of surgery....Lurpon??? No thank you....never again. I am almost 1 inch shorter than I use to be and dx'ed with osteoporosis at age 40!
Endometriosis and hip pain
Recurrence of Endometriosis and hip pain
Dear Ask The Doctor: Can endometriosis come back after surgery and spread to the hips
Dear Deesha: Recurrence of endometriotic lesions is stimulated by estrogens, the female hormones produced by the ovaries. During the normal menstrual cycle, blood levels of estradiol (the main estrogen) fluctuate between 40 and 400 pg/mL. These levels are necessary to achieve pregnancy but they also contribute to the recurrence of endometriosis.
Recurrence rate for endometriosis has been estimated to be 10% per year. One study found it to recur in 40% of women within 5 years after conservative surgery. There is a 6 times higher risk of recurrence after hysterectomy if the ovaries are not removed. Even in women who have their ovaries removed, there is still a risk of further recurrence of Endometriosis.
On occasion endometrial adhesions can restrict the hip ligaments, causing pain and limping. Hip joint pain that worsens in a cyclical fashion in line with the menstrual cycle will usually be caused by endometriosis. Surgical treatment to remove endometrial implants is sometimes undertaken in the hope of relieving the hip joint pain associated with endometriosis.
