A member asked:
Can endometriosis cause permenant damage to the organs or nerves it is attached too?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: While that is not terribly common it is certainly possible. Most often the ovaries, tubes, and uterus are involved with endometriosis - there can be permanent damage.
