I have endo and PCOS. My problem is that my belly is growing bigger and bigger and I'm putting on weight but cannot excercise because I have terrible terrible pain in my left abdominal area and sometimes right. When I go to drs they tell me excercise and diet. Well any stretching or abdominal muscular activity is very painful and I wanted to check if my pain is due to Endo or PCOS. All of you who do not have endo but do have PCOS, do you suffer from pain in any area of your body? Debilitating pain at times

I think you need an ultrasound. It sounds like you have some cysts that have run amok. Endo does not cause a bulging abdomin, but large cysts will. Are you on Metformin? You sound like you could use some. My cysts shrunk considerably on it.
While it is true that losing weight will help because it reduces estrogen which cause both problems with endo and cysts, your doctor should not be ignoring the horrible pain you are in. That is not right. You need to confirm cysts with vaginal U/S.
Also You need ot be checked for fibroids. Those can definetly caue pain and an enlarged belly. And excees estrogen makes tem grow just like cysts and Endo. You may be having a flare up of one or all three. Either, way, if the doc does not listen, then get a new doc. You are in pain and should be treated.
