vestibulitis and endometriosis

The symptoms of endometriosis includes pain during sex. Is it possible that some people are diagnosed with vulvar vestibulitis but in fact have endometriosis. Is it the same kind of pain during intercourse or is it entirely different with endometriosis?

Here is a link to an article that might give you some information. http://www.bermansexualhealth.com/ob-gyn/a-new-front-in-vulvodyna-overlapping-conditions-organizations-share-infora.html
I also found this article by Dr. Andrew Goldstein on endometriosis.

Re: vestibulitis and endometriosis

If it is only Endometriosis, yes there can be painful intercourse including painful penetration. Usually though, these patients don't complain of the burning, rawness, tearing types of symptoms. It is more of the crampy, deep achiness (which can also be heard from patients w/VVS).
