Endometriosis, a condition that may affect women during their child-bearing years, occurs when a type of tissue that lines the uterus begins to grow outside of it. Although not usually dangerous, it can cause pain and other problems.
If you think you have this condition and want to learn more, then check the BC Health Guide website.
You may also want to discuss your options with your family doctor. If your doctor thinks it's appropriate to refer you to BC Women's, and they don't already have a referal form, they can call the Women's Health Centre at 604-875-3060 to request one. |
