While there is no cure for endometriosis, there are treatments that can help manage symptoms.

​

If you’re experiencing unusually painful periods, pain outside of your cycle, or changes in your menstrual cycle that affect your daily life, work, or school, it’s important to know this isn’t something you have to just accept.

Endometriosis could be a possibility, but it may also be related to another condition.

​

Talking to your GP as soon as possible can help you understand what’s going on and guide you toward the right next steps.

​

Available Treatments

​

• Pain relief & anti-inflammatory meds

• Pelvic floor physiotherapy

• Dietary changes & alternative therapies (e.g., acupuncture)

• Hormone therapy to regulate or temporarily stop periods

 

For more severe cases, surgery may be needed if other treatments don’t work.

​

These treatments can’t cure endometriosis, but they can reduce pain, help regulate periods, and enable a more active lifestyle.

​

What you should know

​

Treatment plans are highly individual. What works for one person may not work for another. Your medical team will consider factors like your age, medical history, symptom severity, future family plans, and any potential side effects to determine the best approach for you.

​

These treatments cannot necessarily cure Endometriosis, but they may help reduce pain, prevent, help regulate or limit periods, and potentially enable you to live as active as possible.
