Common Causes Of Hypovolemic Shock

Endometriosis

The lining of the uterus is called the endometrium. Endometriosis is an abnormal condition where the endometrial cells migrate outside of the uterus into the pelvic cavity. These cells may grow and attach to organs such as the fallopian tubes or the ovaries or attach to the bowel or tissues lining the pelvis. During a woman's menstrual cycle, this misplaced tissue bleeds, just like the endometrium inside of the uterus, and this bleeding may contribute to the formation of cysts and adhesions. Complications from endometriosis that lead to hypovolemic shock are rare. In cases where it has occurred, there was a buildup of body fluids, including blood, in the pelvic cavity.
