New research has confirmed the genetic links we all suspected were a cause of endometriosis. But research shows correlation between these physical signs and endometriosis:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Early onset of your first period. You will have more periods than women who begin their cycles late, so you have more chances for menstrual blood implants in your pelvis. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Very short cycles (close together periods), again, this endometriosis risk is directly related to the number of days of bleeding you will have each year. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Heavy periods, means that you will shed more lining tissue, and this in turn increases endometriosis risk. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Heavier levels of alcohol consumption, probably due to levels of inflammation in your body which makes you less likely to be able to fight off endometriosis.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Being very thin, again, too thin is as risky as too heavy with respect to inflammation, and thin women are less likely to be fertile, see number 8 also!<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><msreadoutspan class=\"msreadout-line-highlight\">Having many freckles and <\/msreadoutspan><msreadoutspan class=\"msreadout-word-highlight\"><msreadoutspan class=\"msreadout-line-highlight\"><msreadoutspan class=\"msreadout-word-highlight\">moles<\/msreadoutspan><\/msreadoutspan><\/msreadoutspan><msreadoutspan class=\"msreadout-line-highlight\">, <\/msreadoutspan><msreadoutspan class=\"msreadout-line-highlight\">specifically<\/msreadoutspan><msreadoutspan class=\"msreadout-line-highlight\"> a link with melanoma<\/msreadoutspan> as well as these moles<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Low vitamin D is not only linked with endometriosis, but the endometriosis is likely to be more severe<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Not exercising much. Essentially exercise is protective against endometriosis.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Not ever having children.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Sensitivity to sun: those who burn easily are more likely to have endometriosis. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>There is a genetic link, if you have family members with endometriosis, you are more likely to have endometriosis diagnosed. What&#8217;s more twins are slightly more likely to get endometriosis as well. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The newest link: pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), particularly in those with infection of uterine lining<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>Ultimately testing has to be done to confirm whether you have  correctable causes of endometriosis such as low vitamin D, if you have questions, come in to discuss.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"#\">Call<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Your gyno looks to the fact that you have had pelvic pain, difficulty getting pregnant, or menstrual cramps.
