Endometriosis

Overview

Endometriosis is a chronic condition where tissue similar to the lining of the uterus grows outside the uterus, causing pain, irregular periods, and potential fertility issues. It’s a common but often misunderstood condition that affects millions of women worldwide, including many in Lucknow. Our clinic offers specialized endometriosis care, combining medical expertise with a compassionate approach to help women manage their symptoms and improve their quality of life.
