Best Endometriosis Specialist in Hyderabad

Understanding Endometriosis

Endometriosis is a chronic gynaecological condition where tissue similar to the uterine lining (endometrium) grows outside the uterus — on the ovaries, fallopian tubes, bladder, or bowel. This displaced tissue behaves like the normal endometrium: it thickens, breaks down, and bleeds with every menstrual cycle but has nowhere to go, causing inflammation, scar tissue, and often severe pain.

Common Symptoms of Endometriosis

• Severe, debilitating period pain (dysmenorrhea)
• Heavy or irregular menstrual bleeding
• Chronic pelvic pain throughout the month
• Pain during or after sexual intercourse
• Pain during urination or bowel movements
• Infertility or difficulty conceiving
• Fatigue, bloating, and digestive issues

Why Is Endometriosis Often Misdiagnosed?

Endometriosis is frequently misdiagnosed as irritable bowel syndrome, pelvic inflammatory disease, or 'normal' period pain. The average delay in diagnosis is 7 to 10 years. An experienced specialist like Dr. Nikitha Reddy DS uses a thorough history, targeted ultrasound, and laparoscopy to establish an accurate and timely diagnosis.
