Decisional conflict in individuals with endometriosis
We are seeking people who have been diagnosed with endometriosis to share their experiences of making decisions about symptom management. The survey includes questions about making those decisions, how you are feeling generally, and if treatment costs are a burden. The survey is anonymous, and the results will contribute to the creation of an online tool that will help people with endometriosis to make high-quality decisions about treatments.
