Overview
Endometriosis is classified into four stages of severity based on the revised American Society for Reproductive Medicine scoring system. The staging is based on the distribution of the lesions and the presence of adhesions.
Classification
Endometriosis is classified based on the revised American Society for Reproductive Medicine scoring system:[1]
- Stage I:
- Stage II:
- Mild endometriosis lesions are superficial with size less than 5 cm on aggregate
- Lesions scattered on the peritoneum and ovaries
- No significant adhesions present
- Stage III:
- Stage IV:
- Severe disease characterized by multiple superficial and deep implants
- Large ovarian endometriomas
- Dense adhesions present
