Repetitive abdominal pain in a reproductive-aged woman.

We report a young woman with ileocecal endometriosis who presented with repeated abdominal pain. Under hormonal effects, the endometrium may proliferate and cause bleeding in the bowel wall, leading to cyclical abdominal pain. When recurring abdominal pain is observed in reproductive-aged women, physicians should always be aware of gastrointestinal endometriosis.
