Figure 2 Bar graphs showing mean pain symptom scores in patients without rectovaginal endometriosis before and after 12 months of treatment according to the preferred system and pain scale: (A) visual analog scale and (B) verbal rating scale. Error bars represent standard deviation. Mean differences correspond to baseline values minus 12-month values. None of the between-group differences is statistically significant (independent Student's t test).

Figure 3 Bar graphs showing mean pain symptom scores in patients with rectovaginal endometriosis before and after 12 months of treatment according to the preferred system and pain scale: (A) visual analog scale and (B) verbal rating scale. Error bars represent standard deviation. Mean differences correspond to baseline values minus 12-month values. ∗The between-group difference in dysmenorrhea variation is statistically significant on both scales (independent Student's t test, P < 0.01).
