Endo@Work
The Endo@Work project is seeking input from Australian workplaces across all industries.
Western Sydney University, in partnership with Endometriosis Australia, have established Endo@Work, which aims to develop a set of workplace guidelines for employers to support staff with endometriosis in the workplace.
The research team at WSU seeks to identify and prioritise what Australian employers can do to support staff who are managing endometriosis to reduce absenteeism and improve their work productivity.
Endometriosis Management Plan (Endo-MP) Project
The Endo-MP project aims to develop and implement an Endometriosis Management Plan to support the navigation and management of endometriosis and pelvic pain for providers and their patients through primary care settings and is expected to improve the quality of life for individuals with the condition and reduce associated economic costs.
Barriers to people with endometriosis discussing sexual dysfunction with treatment providers
Pelvic floor muscle exercises and mindfulness for women with endometriosis-associated pelvic pain
This research study conducted by researchers from Monash University and Monash Health aims to investigate whether pelvic floor muscle exercises and mindfulness can be helpful in reducing pelvic pain. Your contribution will greatly assist us in designing effective physiotherapy treatments for females with endometriosis and pelvic pain in the future.
Participants will be asked to attend four face-to-face appointments at Monash University Peninsula Campus (Frankston), Melbourne, Australia and the other four will be telehealth sessions via Zoom.
If interested, please email Shaza.kadah@monash.edu.
Exploring financial burden and language barriers for people with endometriosis
This research project from Deakin University aims to understand experiences of living with endometriosis, especially the financial burden of endometriosis and the potential language barriers to the delivery of endometriosis information by healthcare providers.
Outcomes from this study may be used to inform and guide interventions targeted at managing financial security, enhancing practitioner-patient relationships, and improving diagnosis and support for people with endometriosis.
