There are many common symptoms of endometriosis, such as pelvic pain, painful periods, pain during intercourse, and infertility. It is essential that you try to arrange an appointment with a gynecologist or endometriosis specialist and prepare for your appointment by noting down all your symptoms and concerns. If needed, you should be able to ask your family doctor to arrange this appointment for you. Your specialist will then probably conduct some diagnostic tests such as an examination of your pelvis, an ultrasound, or a laparoscopy (which is a small surgical procedure in which a fibre-optic instrument is inserted through the abdominal wall to view the organs in the abdomen) to try to confirm any suspected diagnosis. You should then have the possibility to discuss potential treatment options with your healthcare provider, which may include pain management, hormone therapy, or surgery. Please do not hesitate to seek medical attention if your symptoms are affecting your daily life.
