Hello there,
First off ultrasounds and endo have nothing to do with each other, you
can see endo on an ultrasound you need a lap to find out if you have it,
which I suggest is your best option the faster they find it, the faster
they can do something for you, I'm only 25 and had to have a hyst at 24
because the pain got so bad and it spread everywhere, I've had 4
laporoscopies already so if you'd like to write me and ask me any
questions about them feel free, I will answer anything to you have ask.
You can contact me either here or at shelle20@yahoo.com I'm on my
computer at least 4 times a day most days, so I will for sure get back
to you ASAP.
Willing to help someone in need, Michelle I.
