Endometriosis: Hello, You should have this evaluated as you may require surgery to address these findings. As Endometriosis progresses/grows it can affect your bowels and urination. For many women, there is also significant pain associated with Endometriosis and possible infertility depending on the extent of the Endometriosis.
