Is this endometriosis?

Patient's question:

Hello, that's the situation. I'm 26 years old this year, and basically every time I have my period, my stomach aches. I have to take Advil. When I first started having my period, I remember that the first time it seemed a bit uncomfortable in my stomach, but I'm not too sure. Usually, during menstrual cramps, it hurts for about half a day. But as long as I use a hot compress, the pain will usually ease up after about an hour. Then, if I take a nap, it will be fine. I have also had an ultrasound examination, and the doctor said it is caused by retroverted uterus leading to menstrual cramps. I once saw online that someone said the symptoms of endometriosis are that the more the menstrual flow, the more painful it is. I don't know if this statement is true?

Doctor's answer:

Okay, here is the translation following your instructions:
You can have another ultrasound check to see if there are adenomyosis or chocolate cysts. If there are, it means that the menorrhagia is caused by endometriosis.
