The Impact of Psychological Support During the Hospitalization in Women With Endometriosis
The Impact of Psychological Support During the Hospitalization in Women With Endometriosis
Endometriosis is a common disease, causing significant pain (dysmenorrhea, dysuria, dyspnea, dyspareunia, and chronic pelvic pain) and infertility, drastically reducing patients' quality of life.
Endometriosis surgery is often a stressful event for the patient. For that reason, psychological support can improve patients' general health state.
Patients with clinical and trans-vaginal / abdominal ultrasound diagnosis of endometriosis, undergoing surgery for the removal of endometriotic lesions are included in the study.
Psychological support is offered to all women one month before and one month after surgery. A group of patients will receive intensive psychological support during hospitalization.
Patients are divided into 2 groups:
Group A: patients receiving intensive psychological support during hospitalization
Group B: patients not receiving intensive psychological support during hospitalization
After surgery, patients will be included in the post-operative follow-up, as usual in the investigator's clinical practice.
