🏫 This isn't just academic; it has real-world implications for healthcare decisions + monitoring #endo . Recognizing the possible links to autoimmune diseases can lead to earlier diagnosis, more effective treatment strategies, and ultimately, improved quality of life.

➡️ While these associations don't necessarily imply causation, they do open up new avenues for understanding and treating #endometriosis . Further research is crucial to unravel the shared risk factors + potential causal relationships between endometriosis and autoimmune diseases

More strikingly, research has suggested a potential connection🔗 between #endometriosis and various #autoimmune diseases. These include:
🔸Systemic Lupus Erythematosus
🔸Sjögren’s Syndrome
🔸Rheumatoid Arthritis
🔸Autoimmune Thyroid Disorders
🔸Coeliac Disease
🔸MS
🔸IBS
