Don't understand why endo causes irregular or heavy bleeding???

If endometriosis occurs outside the womb then how does it cause excess or irregular bleeding? One of my first symptoms before my whole body descended into chaos was a little bleeding in the middle of my cycle which I'd never had before, but I don't get why, it happens. Eventually before I went on the pill my periods were lasting over 3 weeks. I know no one researches this so there is probably no scientific answer but does anyone have any ideas?
