Endometriosis Action Month with PEMFs
With March comes Endometriosis Action Month, Action Month is an opportunity used to raise awareness and demand change for those who are suffering with Endometriosis. According to Endometriosis UK, 1 in 10 women, and those assigned female of birth in the UK suffer with endometriosis. With 10% of women worldwide also suffering, that’s 176 million worldwide.
What is endometriosis?
Is a condition where cells similar to the ones in the lining of the womb are found elsewhere. Every month, these cells react to the menstrual cycle and also bleed like the cells in the lining of the womb. However, there is no way for this to leave the body, causing inflammation, pain and the formation of scar tissue.
This can affect a person’s life in a number ways, including:
- Chronic pain
- Fatigue
- Problems with a couple’s sex life/ relationships
- An inability to conceive
- Difficult fulfilling work and social commitments
How can PEMF help those suffering?
In a small pilot study, it suggested that Pulsed Electromagnetic Field Therapy (PEMF) exposure to women with endometriosis and pelvic pain showed a dramatic relief in symptoms.
One of PEMFs well known benefits is aiding the reduction of inflammation in the body. PEMFs can help to increase circulation and blood flow, blood carries the nutrients and oxygen necessary for cellular function and repair, so enhanced blood flow makes sure that these essential elements are reaching inflamed tissues, promoting healing and supporting overall tissue health.
For those trying to treat the pelvic pain, it would be suggested to apply PEMFs with a localised applicator to the pelvic area to target the PEMFs.
