Abstract
Dysmenorrhea is defined as symptoms associated with menstruation, such as abdominal pain, cramping and lumbago, that interfere with daily activity. Primary dys-menorrhea refers to menstrual pain without underlying pathology, whereas secondary dysmenorrhea is menstru-al pain associated with underlying pathology. Endome-triosis, one of the main causes of secondary dysmenor-rhea, induces dysmenorrhea, pelvic pain and infertility, resulting in marked reduction of quality of life during reproductive age. This review article is a comprehensive overview of dysmenorrhea and endometriosis in young women. Key words adolescent; infertility; laparoscopic sur-gery; oral contraceptive; prostaglandin
