Treatment and Management

If you have been diagnosed with endometriosis, your doctor or specialist should discuss possible endometriosis treatment options with you.

Currently, there is no cure for endometriosis. The different treatments available for endometriosis aim to reduce the severity of symptoms and improve the quality of life for someone living with the condition. The type of treatment you receive for your endometriosis should be decided in partnership between you and your healthcare professional. Your healthcare professional will consider many different factors when working out the best endometriosis treatment method for you, such as your age, the severity of endometriosis you have and the severity of your symptoms.

We do not recommend any particular treatment for endometriosis, but support patients seeking treatment options appropriate to their individual circumstances. 

As a charity, Endometriosis UK relies on support from people like you. If you found this page helpful please consider making a donation. Thank you.
