What can i do to lower my chances of getting endometriosis?
4 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
It is not: Many women have retrograde menstruation resulting in pelvic endometriosis. However, if you have symptoms (which not every woman will have) including severe menstrual cramps- painful intercourse-infertility....Then you should consider having this diagnosis made.

Nothing: Great question; unfortunately there is nothing you can do because there is no clear connection to any lifestyle factors.
