Why does endometriosis pain worsen after periods end?
4 weeks ago
My endometriosis pain is worse after my periods Most people talk about pain during periods, but mine actually continues for several days after the bleeding stops. Sometimes I also feel pain in my lower back. Can endometriosis cause this pattern?

Yes, endometriosis can cause pain that persists or even worsens after your period ends, as the condition involves tissue similar to the uterine lining growing outside the uterus, which can remain inflamed and irritated beyond the menstrual cycle. Lower back pain is also a common symptom, especially if endometrial tissue is present near the pelvic nerves or ligaments. This pattern of post-menstrual pain is a recognized presentation of endometriosis and should be discussed with a gynecologist for proper evaluation and management.
