3. Endometriosis: Common symptoms are secondary dysmenorrhea that gradually worsens. The pain may occur periodically, or there may be dull pain in the lower abdomen during non-menstrual periods that worsens before and after menstruation.

In addition, it is often accompanied by infertility and menstrual disorders. Adenomyosis, like endometriosis, presents with secondary dysmenorrhea, often accompanied by menorrhagia.
