Endometriosis

Endometriosis affects 1 in 9 women in Australia

It’s a chronic inflammatory condition where tissue similar to the uterine lining grows outside the uterus. These cells respond to hormones (especially oestrogen), which can trigger pain, inflammation, and other symptoms throughout the month, not just during your period.

​

Common symptoms include:

  • Painful periods

  • Ovulation pain

  • Pain during or after sex

  • Pelvic pain at any time in your cycle

  • Constipation or painful bowel movements

  • Fatigue

  • Fertility challenges

​

For many women, it can take 6–8 years to receive a diagnosis, with laparoscopy and biopsy being the only definitive way to confirm it.

What causes Endometriosis

The exact cause isn’t fully understood, but research points to a mix of factors:

  • Hormonal imbalances (especially oestrogen dominance)

  • Immune system changes that make it harder to clear misplaced endometrial cells

  • Chronic inflammation

  • Genetic predisposition

  • Digestive or microbiome changes

  • Environmental triggers

This complexity is why endometriosis looks different in each woman and why treatment needs to be personalised.
