    Women with endometriosis also face a significantly increased risk of experiencing ante-and postpartum hemorrhage [45] as well as a 170% increased risk of severe pre-eclampsia [46] during pregnancy. Endometriosis slightly increases the risk (about 1% or less) of developing ovarian, breast and thyroid cancers compared to women without the ...

    For example, if the atom bearing the positive charge is stabilized by electron-donating groups, polymerization will proceed by the S N 1 mechanism. [20] The cationic species is a heteroatom and the chain grows by the addition of cyclic monomers thereby opening the ring system. Synthesis of Spandex. [22]

    Endometrioma is found in 17–44% patients with endometriosis. [2] More broadly, endometriosis is the presence of tissue similar to, but distinct from, endometrial tissue located outside the uterus.
