Endometriosis is a very unusual gynecologic disease, whereby the glands that normally lie inside the uterine cavity and are the ones that are shed with a normal period, somehow come to lie outside the uterine cavity almost always in other places in the pelvis. Thus, when bleeding from a period occurs, these glands will have a tiny amount of bleeding internally. WWW.GOLDSTEINMD.COM
This can cause some scarring (adhesions) as well as inflammatory changes that are a wellknown source of pelvic pain and sometimes infertility. Usually the pain is worse with the menses, although it can often occur between periods as well.
Originally, laparoscopy (a surgical procedure to look inside the abdomen) was the gold standard for making a differentiation for pain that might be from endometriosis versus normal severe painful periods. As an Endometriosis Specialist in NYC, Dr. Goldstein does not recommend laparoscopies, but uses painless, non-invasive Transvaginal Ultrasounds to diagnose your condition.
