" Adhesions. Sometimes you don't even know you have them. Other times they make you feel like your entire pelvis is Crazy Glued together, and to make even the slightest movement would be crippling. But what are they, really? And what can be done about them??

" As the name would suggest, adhesions are 'sticky surfaces that bind together.' Our pelvic organs and abdominal cavity are protected by a thin membrane called the peritoneum. When the peritoneum suffers damage, such as following surgery, infection or through a chronic disease process like Endometriosis, Fibrin (a sticky protein-like substance) is released and accumulated on the injured surface. The injured, Fibrin-covered surface then sticks to other areas of the pelvic cavity. The subsequent bands that form between these surfaces are called adhesions. These adhesions can bind, obstruct, twist and otherwise impair organs and delicate tissues. Endometriotic implants can also become trapped inside the adhesions, making it difficult to detect and remove such lesions."
