10 Signs of Endometriosis
Endometriosis Sign #7: Menorrhagia
Menorrhagia, or heavy menstrual bleeding, refers to excessive heavy flow that may occur due to structural abnormalities in the reproductive tract, bleeding disorder, anovulation, cancer of the reproductive tract, or because of hormone issues.
Treatment of menorrhagia depends on the severity, cause, and interference with the patient’s quality of life. In endometriosis, menorrhagia is often accompanied by severe pain as the extension of endometrial tissue outside the uterus tries to shed and causes abnormal and painful bleeds.
