As we step into 2026, we want to say thank you.

Thank you to everyone who supported our Shine a Light on Endometriosis campaign through donations, reflections, sharing, and by showing up for the endometriosis community.
Because of you, people impacted by endometriosis can find connection, community, and trusted information grounded in lived experience when they need it most.
We’re deeply grateful to everyone who showed up, shared, donated, and helped shine a light for themselves, for one another, and for those still searching for answers.

What is endo?

Endometriosis is a complex chronic disease that is challenging to manage and live with. It occurs when tissue similar to the lining of the uterus grows abnormally elsewhere in the body.

Pathways to diagnosis

There are several ways that doctors can get information that will help them make a diagnosis of endometriosis. Your symptoms, priorities, and specific needs will help you decide with your doctor how to approach investigating your symptoms.

Management options

While there is no known cure for endometriosis, there are many different management options to consider, including surgery, and medication. Holistic approaches, like how you eat, manage stress, and process difficult emotions can also help.
