Frequently asked questions

Should I have treatment for my endometriosis?

The decision about whether or not to have treatment is up to the individual. Any decisions should be made in partnership with the patient and their healthcare professional. The patient should be aware of all the benefits and risks associated with a form of treatment and be comfortable with it. It is not compulsory to have treatment for endometriosis and the decision whether to treat it will depend upon the severity of the disease and symptoms and also any issues surrounding fertility.
