A member asked:
Can endometriosis be determined by a pelvic exam?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Determined, no: Suspected maybe. It depends on a lot of things, including the extent and location of the endometriosis, how easy the woman is to examine (one case where being very skinny really helps), and the experience of the examiner. Good wishes.
