Endometriosis

How can you tell if you have endometriosis. I always have that fear. What is it actually like when someone is really diagnosed with it? Help me out.

some people dont hurt really bad but i have endo. and when i have my period i cant breath because i hurt so bad the only thing i can do is lay on the bed in a ball, and i bleed very very heavy, and it hurts to have sex sometimes to they are just some of the signs of having endo. but the only way my obgyn found out that i had it was he had to go in and look around through my belly button.

some people have symptoms, others dont. migraines, pain during period, pelvic pain, ovarian pain, pain during intercouse, spotting, sciatic nerve pains, back pain, fatigue, infertility- problems getting pregnant, irregular cycle. i did not know i had endometriosis until i got off the pill and could not fall pregnant. symptoms get worse when you get off the pill. go to www.centerforendo.com- there is a lot of information on signs of endo and treatment
