Hi.. I’m new to this group.
Just wondering if endometriosis is worse during periods or does it cause symptoms at anytime?

Endometriosis is considered a whole body disease so it can cause pain anytime and can get worse on your period😭

For me it's worse around ovulation and in my luteal phase and during menstruation. My follicular phase is the only time I don't get symptoms but it's different for everyone!

For me it’s always worse when I’m on my period and also when I’m ovulating :( but everyone is different:( x

Everyone is different. It's a spectrum disease with million different potential presentations as you could have it growing anywhere on your body. Most people will have more pain on, before or after period or ovulation but some do suffer all the time and I was one of those but with much intensified pain directly before and during periods until I found what worked for me
