What is Endometriosis?

Endometriosis is a common condition that causes painful periods and discomfort throughout the menstrual cycle, including pain during sex, urination, and bowel movements. It can be a debilitating experience for many.

Diagnosing Endometriosis

  • Clinical Diagnosis: Endometriosis is diagnosed through discussion with your doctor, not requiring ultrasound, surgery, or lab tests.
  • Symptoms: Severe pain during periods, pain between periods, painful sex, and painful urination are key indicators.

When Pain Medications Aren't Enough

Unlike typical period pain, endometriosis often doesn't respond well to common pain relievers like ibuprofen or naproxen. Many individuals experience severe pain lasting multiple days, often leading to missed work or school.
