hi katelyn,
I was diagoned with endometriosis
during laproscopic surgery for
infertility. I personally had no physical
symptoms(some women dont)but the main sign
of having it is painful periods.There may
be other symptoms but im not sure what
they are.Hope this helps you out.

I have endometriosis. I have had it for
6 years now. Darkening of your nipples,
very tender breasts, painful periods, hard
time getting pregnant, mood swings...Those
are all signs. Just go to the doctore
and he will be able to help you out more.

Endometriosis Posted: 02-22-04 03:23am
Hi katelyn,
there can be many symptoms of
endometriosis or non at all like donna
said. I was diagnosed with endometriosis
4 years ago after many years of pain-
ranging from period pain, stomach cramps,
back pain, pain during intercourse as well
as after, you may experience heavy periods
that may be irregular and or for longer
than the usual seven days we expect.
There are a wide range of symptoms, and
you may have one or all of them, but this
does not mean that the more you have the
worse it is. You can have all the
symptoms and only have a mild case, or non
of them and have a severe case. Hope this
is of some help to you

Like the other girls said there are many
of different symptoms. And depending on
the person, they can be mild or severe.
The symptoms that I have, are as follows:
irregular period
pain in ovaries (varies, sometimes it is
so awful I cannot stand it, and sometimes
it is very mild, and sometimes it doesn't
hurt at all)
pain in various areas of the stomach (my
whole life I have always slept on my
stomach, but now, I cannot. If I push
ever so lightly on any area of my stomach
and lower sides it hurts.)
tubal pregnancies, infertility and ovarian
cysts are all very possible if you have
endometriosis (sp?) I hope this helped
some.
