This literature review examines menopause and its clinical implications in women with a diagnosis of pelvic endometriosis, describing endometriosis as ectopic endometrial tissue outside the uterine cavity and linking lesion activity to serum estradiol concentrations using the estrogen threshold hypothesis. It summarizes diagnostic approaches (with histopathology as the gold standard, but also imaging such as MRI or transvaginal ultrasound with bowel preparation) and discusses treatment patterns, noting that recurrence within 12 months can occur in up to 50% of cases and may be reduced by complementary hormonal therapy after surgery. The review also addresses how the menopause transition involves declining follicle quantity and quality with menstrual irregularity and lower estradiol, while hormone treatments can induce amenorrhea and complicate determining menopause even with vasomotor symptoms, and that conservative ovarian surgery may reduce ovarian reserve. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — it specifically reviews how pelvic endometriosis relates to menopause transition, diagnosis, and treatment considerations, and whether endometriosis influences the timing of menopausal change.
