A member asked:
How can you alleviate back pain caused by endometriosis?
6 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Ebdo pain: Back pain from endometr is a referred pain most of the time, since the ligaments and muscles that support the pelvis and uterus anchor to the bony lower back. Nsaid's usually help. Some other times you may actually have spasms from pyriformis muscle or paraspinals, these will be relived by stretching these muscle groups as well as massage therapy. Trigger point injections could help a lot as well.

Treat the disease: I assume 1) you have a definite diagnosis of endometriosis already, 2) there's good reason to believe your back pain is caused by endometriosis. If these are true treating your endometriosis is the best answer. If either of the above is not true, then that's where to start.

Can endometriosis cause urge fecal incontinence, gluteal muscle pain, bilateral weakness in legs and limping? Piriformis stretch does not relieve the pain. The pain is clearly worse with bleeding. Are these symptoms menstual related or endo related?
