This case series and literature review examines the occurrence of endometriosis in postmenopausal women, highlighting risk factors such as hormone replacement therapy, tamoxifen use, and obesity. The authors present two cases involving 58-year-old patients, one with deep infiltrating endometriosis associated with tamoxifen treatment for DCIS and another with ureteral involvement linked to estrogen monotherapy. The findings indicate that severe complications from deep infiltrating disease can manifest for the first time during menopause, suggesting that estrogen-progestin combinations may be better tolerated than estrogen-only regimens in these patients. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — specifically its presentation, diagnosis, and management challenges in the postmenopausal population.
