I dont understand endo cant be for sure unless they do exploratory surgery but all signs point to this.

Ultra sound show thick lining in uterus Nurse PRAC. states she would be worried if I menaposal...but ultra sound was taken in the middle of my cycle.
I know it gets thick before menstral and thins out after but this was done in the middle.

Endometriosis Answer A6072



Endometriosis is a condition in which endometrial cells are found outside the uterine cavity. The recurring pain is a major symptom of endometriosis. Other symptoms include: nausea, vomiting or diarrhea, frequent menses flow or short menstrual cycle, or heavy or long menstrual periods in some women.
Non-steroid anti-inflammatory drugs might help to relieve the pain. Medication containing progesterone might stop the spreading of the endometriosis. However, surgery is the final and most effective treatment for endometriosis.
