An information resource to guide you about some of the current recommendations on endometriosis medical treatments and offer strategies for managing some of the associated symptoms. Following on from the COVID-19 pandemic, there are long waiting times for accessing endometriosis care through NHS secondary care. This is a source of significant worry and uncertainty for everyone and this time may feel even more challenging for you. Therefore, with support from the Oxford Endometriosis CaRe Centre team, we have put together this information resource to both guide you about some of the current recommendations on medical treatments and to offer some strategies for managing some of the associated symptoms. The recommendations fall under the ‘themes’ below. Unable to obtain usual treatment or asked to change treatment Advice if you are being asked to change to different drugs Starting a new treatment due to symptoms or delayed surgery Advice on starting a new treatment if you are struggling with symptoms or because your surgery has been delayed/postponed Alternative ways of managing your pain Advice on alternative ways of managing your endometriosis pain Within this guidance, we use the terms ‘woman’ and ‘women’. However, we acknowledge that it is necessary for all assigned female at birth (not only those who identify as women) to access evidence-based care to maintain their gynaecological health and reproductive well-being.
