Angela Wright said:Honey, what you just wrote makes zero sense.
Endometriotic cysts have nothing to do with period cramps (other than the fact that endometriosis causes brutal cramping during your cycle), and they definitely aren't the same thing as dermoid cysts. They are completely different issues.
You actually have both of these topics open, so maybe do a little reading and get informed.
Endometriosis starts in the uterus.
The uterus sheds blood during your period (even a toddler knows that,
don't need a medical degree for this one),
so by that logic, periods would hurt even more if the uterus
had growths,
plus with endometriosis, the pain is often chronic because of those hard cysts on the ovary.
And who can say 100% that those endometriotic
cysts can't turn malignant?
So, yeah.
I'm no gynecologist, but are dermoid cysts supposed to be "benign" ovarian tumors?
