  Your results are not suggestive of endometriosis

  Your results are not suggestive of endometriosis, as you display few (if any) of the typical signs and symptoms. However, symptoms of endometriosis vary from person to person and are wide-ranging. Endometriosis may only be diagnosed due to fertility problems. If pain around the time of your menstrual period or mid-cycle (ovulation) that affects your lifestyle, and/or you have fertility problems, seek help. Note that heavy bleeding is not often suggestive of endometriosis and can instead be indicative of adenomyosis and/or fibroids. This quiz was adapted from Andrea Molloy’s excellent book "Endometriosis: A New Zealand Guide". and is to give you an indication of common symptoms associated with endometriosis, and is not meant to replace professional medical advice. If you are concerned about your health or suspect you have endometriosis, please talk to your GP, gynaecologist, or other qualified health professional.
