you need to switch doctors until you can get someone to listen... I had to switch forever until I found someone to listen.. I was diagnosed with endometriosis at the age of 19.. Although it is rare to be diagnosed at such an early age, it is possible... There really isn't much known about this disease and many gynos misdiagnose it... To truly find out if you have endo, ask your doctor about an exploratory laproscopy.. Good Luck
