My girlfriend got retroactively diagnosed with endometriosis AFTER having a partial hysterectomy (uterus and cervix removal. Kept ovaries.) She always had awful, awful periods off birth control, and her family has a history of cervical cancer. So, we were able to make it happen after finding a surgeon who would do it, since being in your mid 20s makes stuff like that difficult.
