The classic symptom of endometriosis is acquired dysmenorrhea, which may produce constant pain in the lower abdomen and in the vagina, posterior pelvis, and back. This pain usually begins from 5 to 7 days before menses reaches its peak and lasts for 2 to 3 days. It differs from primary dysmenorrheal pain, which is more cramplike and concentrated in the abdominal midline. However, the pain’s severity doesn’t necessarily indicate the extent of the disease.
Other clinical features depend on the location of the ectopic tissue:
❑ ovaries and oviducts: infertility and profuse menses
❑ ovaries or cul-de-sac: deep-thrust dyspareunia
❑ bladder: suprapubic pain, dysuria, hematuria
❑ small bowel and appendix: nausea and vomiting, which worsen before menses, and abdominal cramps
❑ cervix, vagina, and perineum: bleeding from endometrial deposits in these areas during menses.
The primary complications of endometriosis are infertility and chronic pelvic pain.
