Common symptoms of endometriosis

Endometriosis is a condition where tissue similar to the lining of the womb grows in other places, most often in the pelvis. The World Health Organization estimates that it affects about 10% of women and girls of reproductive age. The NHS and the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists list these common symptoms:

  • Period pain that stops you from doing your usual activities, or that gets worse over time
  • Pain in the lower belly, pelvis, or lower back, at any time of the month
  • Pain during or after sex
  • Pain when you poo or pee, especially during your period
  • Heavy periods
  • Bloating, constipation, or nausea
  • Extreme tiredness
  • Difficulty getting pregnant

The amount of pain does not always match how much endometriosis a person has. Some people with mild symptoms have a lot of it, and some people with severe pain have only a little. So no number of symptoms can confirm or rule it out. Read more in 20 symptoms of endometriosis.

When to get urgent help

Do not wait to finish a quiz if you have sudden severe pain in your belly or pelvis, pain with fever or vomiting, heavy bleeding with dizziness or fainting, or pain when you could be pregnant. Call emergency services or go to the emergency department.

What to do with your results

  • Take the PDF to your appointment. A written record of when symptoms happen, how bad they are, and what they stop you doing is easier for a doctor to act on than a description from memory.
  • Ask how endometriosis could be checked. Doctors may use an ultrasound or an MRI scan. A laparoscopy, a keyhole operation with a camera, can confirm it.
  • If your symptoms continue after treatment, or you do not feel heard, ask about a referral to a gynecologist. How to ask for a specialist referral.
  • Keep tracking. Symptoms change through the cycle, so a record that covers two or three cycles shows patterns a single quiz cannot. The Endolog symptom tracker app and a pain diary for your doctor can help.
