Overview[edit | edit source]

Endometriosis is a condition where tissue similar to the lining inside the uterus, known as the endometrium, grows outside the uterus, causing pain and potentially leading to infertility. The Endometriosis Society of India plays a crucial role in bringing together healthcare professionals, researchers, and patients to address the challenges posed by this condition. Through conferences, workshops, and publications, the society disseminates the latest research findings and clinical practices to its members and the public.
