Has she been to the doctors and if so, is she on any treatment plans for the endo?
I know how she feels, having suffered from endo and painful sex. Ask her to describe the pain to you. In my case it was "deep" pain that was caused by my endometriosis so shallow intercourse was usually ok. My gyno sent me for a laparoscopy and he removed 99% of my endo. Since my operation I haven't had any "deep" pain.
I also suffer from vestibulitis which causes "entry" pain.
Ask her about the pain, and which areas are hurting her and try to work around it. Be kind and gentle with her and listen for the signs of pain. Be patient and supportive - it really does hurt A LOT! If all else fails - foreplay can be heaps of fun - just get creative!!
Another suggestion, do everything you can to relax her before sex. A massage and light foreplay. In my experience, when I know pain is coming I tense up which makes things much, much worse.
