Don't know what are the symptoms of endometriosis

Patient's question:

I've been married for 10 years and have always been so busy. I got pregnant. Every time I'm about to get my period, my stomach hurts. My period is heavy with a lot of blood, and the duration of my period is also shortened. During sexual activity, it's painful, and there's no pleasure at all. I have a sensation of fullness and pressure when I have a bowel movement. For these many years without a child, I went to the hospital for a thorough examination and was diagnosed with endometriosis. What are the symptoms of endometriosis?

Doctor's answer:

1, Dysmenorrhea can recur before, during, and after menstruation. Some cases of dysmenorrhea are severe and unbearable, requiring bed rest or medication to promote blood circulation.
2, Excessive menstrual bleeding: Endometriosis with intrinsic causes often leads to continuously increasing menstrual flow and prolonged periods. This may be due to the continuous growth of the endometrium, but it is often accompanied by endocrine disorders of the ovaries.
3, Infertility: Endometriosis patients often experience infertility.
4, Pain during intercourse: Endometriosis occurring in the uterosacral pouch or the vaginal rectal septum can cause surrounding tissue swelling, affecting sexual activity.
5, Patients with rectal fullness and pressure caused by gynecological diseases should actively adopt treatment measures and not avoid seeking medical attention. If gynecological diseases do not improve with treatment, it is important to change the treatment plan promptly.
