Frequently asked questions

My doctor told me pregnancy will cure my endometriosis, should I to try to get pregnant?

There is no cure for endometriosis. The hormones released when pregnant temporarily suppress the menstrual cycle – which can alleviate symptoms. Many women find that their symptoms return after giving birth and their menstrual cycle has returned. The decision to have a child should depend on lots of things and only you will know when you are ready to start a family.
