Abstract

Background: Endometriosis is implantation of normal endometrial mucosa in the ectopic sites. Literature review suggests that microscopic internal bleeding follows by revascularization and fibrosis is possible mechanism for endometriosis. There are a few reports regarding association of endometriosis and bleeding disorders. We present two cases with bleeding tendency, one with mild hemophilia A and another with Von Willebrand Disease (VWD) that were presented with heavy menses and endometriosis.
