March is Endometriosis Action Month.
This year, our theme is ‘Endometriosis Doesn’t Wait’. Endometriosis doesn’t wait whilst you’re trying to get a diagnosis or access care. It doesn’t wait for your career. Your education. Your social life or your relationships.
Our new report: The State of Endometriosis Care in the UK shows that the average time to receive a diagnosis is now 9 years and 4 months. For women and those assigned female at birth from communities of colour, it’s even longer at 11 years.
Join us and help us demand change for the 1 in 10 women and those assigned female at birth with endometriosis in the UK.
Ask your local MP/ MSP/ MS/ MLA to take action
The average time to receive a diagnosis is now 9 years and 4 months. The Government cannot afford to wait any longer. Action is needed now.
Send an email to your MP/ MSP/ MS/ MLA to ask them to take action today. Our easy to use template uses your postcode to find your local representative so you can ask them to take action in just a few clicks.
This form uses your postcode to find your elected representative and automatically generates an email for you to send. You can customise this email, letting them know why their support matters to you.
Share your experience
Do you have a story to tell? By sharing your experience of endometriosis with us, or on social media, you are helping to raise vital awareness. While we are unable to shares all stories publicly, all stories help us to understand your experiences and inform our work, so we can work towards the change you deserve.
Raise your voice via social media to show your support for others with endometriosis, and showcase how others can do the same. Visit the link below to access our downloadable social media assets for you to customise and share.
Don't forget to tag us on social media and use hashtag #EndometriosisActionMonth2026, we'd love to see how you get involved.
Fundraise for Endometriosis UK
Fundraise for us this March and help make a difference for the 1.5 million living with endometriosis in the UK. With your help, we can continue providing support, much-needed information, and campaign for change.
Whether you choose to take on a 1in10 Challenge or GoYellow! day, you'll be doing something amazing, and our friendly Fundraising Team are here to support you. If neither of these options are for you, you can get even more creative and register your own challenge/event as a DIY fundraiser!
