To see whether your symptoms are caused by endometriosis, your doctor first will:
Talk to you about your family and medical history, symptoms, and menstrual periods.
Do a pelvic exam. This often includes checking both the vagina and rectum.
Your doctor may start a trial of treatment, to see if symptoms improve
If needed, a laparoscopy may be recommended to definitively diagnose endometriosis

Can you have endometriosis without heavy bleeding?
Yes. Heavy bleeding is just one of many signs or symptoms of endometriosis. Actually, many women with endometriosis have none of the usual symptoms and would never know it without an exploratory surgery (or if the doctor noticed it during caesarian delivery), because endometriosis doesn't appear on ultrasounds, blood tests, MRI, or XRay.

Why do Doctors know so little about Endometriosis?
Doctors actually know a lot about endometriosis. A doctor can diagnose this very easy with just a small sample of tissue.
Could you have endometriosis if you already have a child?
Yes. Having a child does not protect you from endometriosis. While having endometriosis often makes becoming pregnant difficult for women, becoming pregnant will also reduce the symptoms of endometriosis. So, being diagnosed with endometriosis after having a child makes it rather difficult for your doctor to determine whether you had endometriosis prior to the pregnancy or if it became an issue post-pregnancy - especially if you were positively diagnosed with endometriosis shortly after giving birth.
Why don't pregnancy tests work on me even when i actually was pregnant it came out negative.?

Are pregnany tests accurate?

What does it mean if your semen is clear and yellowish green with rice like lumps in it and what kind of doctor would i see for that?

All of the tests i have taken say I'm severely depressed. What do I do?
Well, if you took those tests over the internet, then your next step is to go see a doctor to be officially diagnosed and be treated. If these tests were administered to you by a doctor, then that doctor should have taken action to help and if they did not then you need to go to a different doctor because the other obviously has a lack of common sense.
