    La endometriosis es una afección ginecológica que afecta a gran número de mujeres en edad reproductiva, caracterizada por la presencia de tejido endometrial fuera del útero. Su etiología no es clara y el diagnóstico suele retrasarse debido a la inespecificidad de los síntomas, que suelen incluir dolor pélvico, dismenorrea o problemas de fertilidad. La fisioterapia se presenta como una opción terapéutica no invasiva que puede ayudar a disminuir los síntomas y mejorar la calidad de vida de las pacientes.

    Endometriosis is a gynecological condition that affects a large number of women of reproductive age, characterized by the presence of endometrial tissue outside the uterus. Its etiology is unclear and the diagnosis is often delayed due to the non-specificity of the symptoms, which usually include pelvic pain, dysmenorrhea or fertility problems. Physiotherapy is presented as a non-invasive therapeutic option that can help reduce symptoms and improve the quality of life of patients.
