Endometriosis and pelvic pain: relation to disease stage and localization.
To determine whether prevalence and severity of pain symptoms are related to endometriosis stage and site, with particular reference to deep infiltrating vaginal lesions. ⋯ Endometriosis stage in the current classification was not related consistently to pain symptoms. The presence of vaginal lesions was associated frequently with severe deep dyspareunia. Dysmenorrhea and nonmenstrual pelvic pain were assessed with equal accuracy by a linear analog and a multidimensional scale.
