Endometriosis
Conditions
Brief summary
To date, no MRI study has been published describing the prevalence of endometriosis in adolescent girls, not even in those with significant dysmenorrhea and therefore more particularly at risk. Likewise, there are no precise data on the type of superficial or early-onset deep endometriosis that appears in adolescence. The collection of these data would allow an earlier diagnosis, because it is better documented, of endometriosis. The lesions would then be treated earlier, avoiding their development and the problems of infertility related to this pathology. The aim of this sudy is to assess the prevalence of endometriosis and its phenotypic representation in the study population consulting for dysmenorrhea with suspected endometriosis.
