Questions about endometriosis

Jennifer
Hi everyone! I have a couple of questions that I wanted to ask. I've read all the literature I could find on endomtriosis, but I wanted to ask women who actually have this. I think I have it and I'm going to the gynecologist next week. My questions are would you only experience cramping during ovulation and menstration or pretty much all month long? What did your doctor do for you? Like did they prescribe medicines to help get through the pain? Also just what should I expect going in to the appointment? I have very intense periods and I cramp all the time. I just want some relief. I'm tired of always hurting. I'm pretty nervous about going in because there is obviously something wrong so any help or advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.
