5 Effective Yoga Asanas To Treat Endometriosis
Endometriosis occurs when endometrial tissue migrates outside of the uterus into the ovaries, vagina, bowel, bladder, rectum, and diaphragm. The condition is one of the leading causes of infertility in women and is further aggravated by stress and anxiety. Endometriosis is either inherited or caused by a faulty immune system.
Here are 5 effective yoga asanas to treat endometriosis.
Baddha Konasana - Butterfly Pose

Sarvangasana - Shoulder Stand

Upavistha Konasana - Wide Angle Seated Forward Bend
Upavistha konasana is a seated forward bend that requires flexibility. The term comes from the Sanskrit upavistha, meaning 'seated' or 'sitting,' kona, meaning 'angle,' and asana, meaning 'pose' or 'posture.' From a seated position, the legs are spread wide and the upper body folds forward. Upavistha Konasana is good preparation for most of the seated forward bends, twists, and the wide-leg standing poses.
Bhujangasana - Cobra Pose
The name comes from the Sanskrit words bhujanga meaning "snake" or "serpent" and asana meaning "posture" or "seat". From a prone position with palms and legs on the floor, the chest is lifted. Bhujangasana may strengthen the spine, stretch the chest, shoulders, and abdomen, firm the buttocks, and relieve stress and fatigue. Traditional texts say that Bhujangasana increases body heat, destroys disease, and awakens kundalini.
