Endometriosis can cause pain during sex because it leads to inflammation and scar tissue in the pelvic area. Treatments like medication, physical therapy, and self-management strategies can help alleviate this pain.
Endometriosis is a condition where tissue similar to the lining inside the uterus grows outside of it. This can cause pain during sex, known as dyspareunia, because the tissue can lead to inflammation and scar tissue in the pelvic area.
Women experiencing pain should consider talking to a healthcare provider to explore these options and find the best treatment plan.
