Endo usually will not show up on an ultrsasound. Because of the many colors and different depths of the disease, you cannot see it on ultrasound.. Lap is still really the only clear cut way to see endo..

Hi all!

How is everyone doing? I'm doing alright so far. I'm just bleeding for one or two days and it stops. And the pain is minimal. I guess the lupron is helping in that respect. I was thinking back to when I went for an ultrasound--they thought I had fibroids--this was before I knew I had endometriosis. I was wondering why the endometriosis didnt show up with the ultrasound. They wanted to do a transvaginal ultrasound on me, but I said no because I was already in a lot of pain. If I had gotten the transvaginal ultrasound, would the endo have shown up? For those of you who have gotten ultrasounds, did the endometriosis show up, or what? Bye for now!
