Pregnancy is the best treatment. Or menstruation interval for some time. Woman in menopause don't suffer from it.After pregnancy the disease very often disappearsIP: Logged |

GLLF,You might've seen this already, but here's a link to an excellent resource for info on Endometriosis:
* http://www.endometriosis.org/ * http://www.endometriosisassn.org/ * http://www.endocenter.org/ - this one has an A/V presentation on it. The most common symptom is pelvic pain: "Pain may be felt:
before/during/after menstruation
during ovulation
in the bowel during menstruation
when passing urine
during or after sexual intercourse
in the lower back region
Other symptoms may include:
diarrhoea or constipation (in particular in connection with menstruation)
abdominal bloating (again, in connection with menstruation)
heavy or irregular bleeding
fatigue" There are several treatment options for it, including pain killers, hormonal treatments, nutritional therapy, etc.; there's more here:
