Endometriosis is a disorder wherein tissue with the same structure and function as the uterus’s mucosa (endometrium) is found in locations other than the uterus. Endometriosis is usually located on/in the genital organs (92%) and more rarely outside the genitals (8%). Endometriosis that is located on/in the genitals can be internal and/or external. Internal genital endometriosis is most often located in the uterus (adenomyosis) and rarely in the tubes. External genital endometriosis is located on the ovaries, pelvic peritoneum and cervix. Endometriosis outside the genitals is a rare condition and can be located in the bladder, lungs, intestines, nose etc. You didn’t tell me the precise location of your endometriosis.... but I suppose that the condition has been located in the uterus.


Endometriosis that is located in the uterus (adenomyosis) manifests with painful menstruation (dysmenorrhea) and a larger amount of bleeding during menstruation (hypermenorrhea). External genital endometriosis manifests with dysmenorrhea, pain in the lower abdomen between periods, irregular cycles and sterility. Sterility is not that typical in cases of adenomiosis as it is in cases of endometriosis located in the tubes, ovaries or pelvic peritoneum. But in your case, endometriosis is complicated with fibroids (fibromyomatosis) and that is probably the main reason for the sterility.


Endometriosis is treated with drugs and surgical intervention. Surgical treatment is indicated in cases of adenomyosis compounded with fibromyomatosis.


I am not sure if the vaginal bleeding you are experiencing is hormonal (functional) or organic in nature. If the blood is due to some hormonal dysbalance (functional bleeding) it can be stopped if you start taking contraceptive pills. Organic bleeding does not stop when taking contraceptive pills. Nonetheless, you should consult some gynecologist about the spotting...immediately!
