Yes. In endometriosis the tissue begins to grow in places outside, as well as inside, the uterus. When the tissue begins to slough off during the monthly cycle it can cause pain or discomfort wherever it is located. Over time the length of pain tends to increase and can last for weeks.
The word for painful menstruation is "dysmenorrhea." It refers to the cramps and discomfort many women experience during their menstrual periods. Dysmenorrhea can be classified as primary, which is common and not usually associated with other medical conditions, or secondary, which is linked to underlying health issues.

Endometrial tissue lines the uterus. Each month, in tune with the menstrual cycle, the endometrial tissue thickens and is shed during menstruation. If you have endometriosis, it means that the same kind of tissue that lines your uterus is also growing in other parts of your body, usually in the abdomen. This can cause scar tissue to build up around your organs. Endometriosis may cause severe pain and abnormal bleeding, usually around the time of your period. Pain during intercourse is another common symptom. However, it is possible to have endometriosis and not have any symptoms. Endometriosis is a leading cause of infertility(inability to get pregnant). Often it is not diagnosed until a woman has trouble getting pregnant.
Endometriosis can influence the reproductive ability which prevents women from getting pregnant. Treatment options include pain relievers, hormones, herbal medicine of Fuyan Pill and surgery.
Endometriosis is noncommunicable disease.
The Romanian language equivalent of "endometriosis" is "endometrioză".

The level of pain varies among women, and surpisingly enough, is not necessarily related to how bad the endo is (i.e. the extent or size of the growths). The pain can be described as "killer cramps" during your period, or it can be completely disabling 24/7 and cause fainting or vomiting. Treatment options include pain relievers, hormones, herbal medicine of Fuyan Pill and surgery. Please get in touch with the Endometriosis Assocation at endometriosisassn.org or take a look at the book, Endometriosis, by Mary Lou Ballweg for more information.
Endometriosis does not necessarily have an odor, or at least not one that you would be able to detect, since endometriosis is inside of you. If you are experiencing vaginal odor, it is most likely not endometriosis, and you should visit your OB GYN with your concerns.
