Treatment for endometriosis is usually with medications or surgery. Birth Control hormones (patch, pills, or ring) or anti-inflammatories (NSAIDs) medicines are the most common medications to relieve pain caused by endometriosis. You may ask your doctor for a different drug since there are many choices out there if you do not like the side effects. If you start taking the NSAIDS as soon as you know your period is going to begin, you may get ahead of the pain. You can also try using a heating pad. Another help is to go for a walk or do other exercise, which sounds counterproductive, but it does relieve spasms.
As we all know, surgery cause early menopause if you have your ovaries removed at the same time. There is also a less invasive procedure to remove the endometrial issues that has worked for some people, particularly if you would like to become pregnant again. Having had the full hysterectomy surgery, it made a huge difference in my quality of life and I am healthier for taking the step. If you do have endometriosis and do not want a recurrence, consider having both ovaries removed. HRT, hormone replacement therapy, in light doses, can be helpful in keeping up vaginal and bone health as well as keeping hot flashes at bay.
Herbal medicine like Fuyan Pill is an alternative medicine to treat endometriosis. In China, endometriosis is called neiyi, meaning internal lump. Lumps, adhesion and tubal blockage caused by endometriosis can make women lose their reproductive ability, called infertility in medical terms. From the TCM point of view, these are mainly caused by heat gathering.

Why is it that some people don't get their period every month?
Stress can cause a person to miss a period, as well as your weight can affect your cycle. In more serious cases of missed periods, it could be PCOS, which is what I have, or Endometriosis.

But if a person misses several, I would recommend seeing a doctor to make sure something more serious isn't going on.

No. Scar tissue can result from a myriad of causes, including surgery to treat endometriosis.
