Your doctor will determine the stage of endometriosis. I know mine was determined during my surgery - the doctor was able to see where it was located how much it had spread and how much damage it had caused.
I was able to manage the symptoms for many years before I had to have surgery, so it is manageable. But I'd encourage you to speak with your doctor to see what the best treatment option is for you.
Good luck and keep us posted on how you are doing.
