Abstract
The link between pain severity, depressive symptomatology and catastrophizing among women with endometriosis is still under-investigated. The aim of this study was to (i) evaluate differences in depressive symptomatology between women with and without endometriosis; (ii) investigate if pain severity is associated with depressive symptoms; and (iii) test if catastrophizing moderates the link between these two variables. A total of 172 women with a diagnosis of endometriosis and 62 healthy controls volunteered for this cross-sectional study. Depressive symptomatology, pain severity, and catastrophizing were assessed.Compared to healthy controls, women with endometriosis were more likely to score above the cutoff for depressive symptomatology, with 60.5% of the latter being classified as having a subthreshold depression or minor depression and 15.7% as having moderate or severe major depression. Pain severity was significantly associated with depressive symptoms even after controlling for several covariates. Finally, the moderation model suggested that among patients with endometriosis, the relationship between pain severity and depressive symptomatology depended on the level of catastrophizing, with this association being stronger for high levels of the moderator.Mental health practitioners working with women with endometriosis may consider those who report high levels of pain severity and of catastrophizing at high risk of depression and are advised to promote adaptive coping strategies among patients to foster a better adaptation to this chronic disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A women's chances of getting pregnant decreases in cases of infertility, which may have several clinical etiologies. The prevalence of infertility is estimated as 10-15% worldwide. One of the causes of infertility is endometriosis, defined as the presence of an endometrial gland and/or stroma outside the uterus, inducing a chronic inflammatory reaction. Thus, infertility and endometriosis are diagnoses that significantly affect women's mental health. This study accessed and compared the levels of depression, anxiety, and quality of life in infertile women with and without endometriosis. METHODS was an observational and cross-sectional study which included 201 infertile women, 81 of whom were also diagnosed with endometriosis. The STROBE Guidelines was used. The data were collected using validated scales: Hamilton D Questionnaire, Beck Depression Inventory, and Fertility Quality of Life Questionnaire; The data were collected at the Ideia Fertil Institute (Santo Andre, Brazil), between February 28 and June 8, 2019. RESULTS the infertile women with endometriosis reported higher presence of depressive symptoms and a lower quality of life compared to women with infertility only. Similar presence of anxiety symptoms was observed regardless of being diagnosed with endometriosis. Women with infertility and endometriosis presented lower levels in quality-of-life domains when compared to women with infertility only - Mind and Body (58.33 × 79.17, p < 0.001), Relational (75 × 81.25, p = 0.009), Social (66.67 × 77.08, p = 0.001), Emotional (50.62 × 67.43, p < 0.001). CONCLUSION the findings indicate the need for increased psychosocial support care for women suffering from infertility and endometriosis to assist them in maintaining and managing their own mental health and achieving their reproductive goals.

Abstract
Literature about the impact of infertility and endometriosis on Quality of Life (QoL) is scarce and needs further investigation. Our aim was to deeply investigate the QoL of women with diagnoses of both endometriosis and infertility with failed Assisted Reproductive Treatments (ART). We conducted a concurrent mixed-method study composed of both quantitative and qualitative surveys. The quantitative survey included 22 women who completed the FertiQoL. The qualitative survey included 15 of them who provided written answers to open-ended questions aimed at deeply exploring their QoL. Data were initially analyzed separately and then combined in a meta-matrix. From the quantitative survey emerged that women at higher risk for low QoL were those who have experienced previous spontaneous miscarriages and that the domains of the FertiQoL related to fertility treatment (i.e. increased pain severity, disturbed daily life routine, and dissatisfaction with services) were the most critical. From the Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA) of qualitative survey, narrations about the physical, relational, social, emotional-cognitive, and behavioural impact of the diseases emerged. Mixed findings showed that the QoL of this population was scarce and that different levels (the inner world, the behaviours, the relational context, and the environmental context) are strictly connected and interact between them in influencing QoL. Multi-level preventive or supportive programs (with specific attention to pain experience, coping strategies, quality of services and governmental support) are required for this population.

[PMID: 37182389 DOI: 10.1016/j.maturitas.2023.04.272] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/08/2022] [Revised: 04/14/2023] [Accepted: 04/30/2023] [Indexed: 05/16/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To examine the association between endometriosis and women's health-related quality of life (HRQoL). STUDY DESIGN This study included 3728 women born in 1973-78 using data from the Australian Longitudinal Study on Women's Health. Women with endometriosis were identified using self-reported longitudinal surveys linked to administrative health records. A mixed effect model with only random intercept and generalised estimating equations with binary logistic regressions were used to examine the association between endometriosis and health-related quality of life over eight time points. Each HRQoL scale was analysed in terms of binary outcomes by comparing women who had a lower HRQoL (scoring below the 25th percentile) with those who had a higher HRQoL (scoring above the 25th percentile). MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Women's HRQoL was assessed using the 36-item Short Form Survey every 3 years from 1996 to 2018. RESULTS Endometriosis was associated with significantly worse reports of HRQoL over time. In the comparison against women without endometriosis, the following adjusted odds ratios (95 % confidence intervals) were calculated for women with endometriosis having worse scores on the eight domains of the Short Form Survey: physical functioning 1.33 (1.19, 1.50), role physical 1.57 (1.41, 1.74), bodily pain 1.65 (1.48, 1.82), general health 1.61 (1.42, 1.81), vitality 1.38 (1.23, 1.55), social functioning 1.38 (1.25, 1.53), role emotion 1.19 (1.06, 1.33), mental health 1.32 (1.18, 1.48). Women with endometriosis also had significantly lower physical health 1.68 (1.51, 1.88) and mental health components scores 1.28 (1.14, 1.44). CONCLUSIONS Endometriosis is associated with worse physical, mental, and social functioning and well-being. Bodily pain was the most affected HRQoL domain.

Quality of life and clinical factors in women with endometriosis, the role of dienogest vs EE/dienogest over time: a single-center study. Arch Gynecol Obstet 2023; 307:1503-1512. [PMID: 36738318 PMCID: PMC10110631 DOI: 10.1007/s00404-023-06942-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/09/2022] [Accepted: 01/18/2023] [Indexed: 02/05/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE The aims of this observational study were: to assess the relationship between psychological variables, pain, Duration Untreated Endometriosis (DUE) in a sample of women with Endometriosis; and to assess the effect of dienogest 2 mg/daily (DNG) and dienogest/ethinylestradiol 0.03 mg/daily (EE/DNG) on Symptoms, QoL, HRQoL, pain and sexual satisfaction, over time. METHODS 64 women constituted the study group; (56%) took DNG and (44%) took EE/DNG. VAS, SF-36, EHP-30 and ISS were used to assess endometriosis-associated pelvic pain, QoL, HRQoL and sexual satisfaction, respectively. The study included one follow-up at 18 months. RESULTS At T0, a longer period of DUE was related both to worst HRQoL and Physical QoL. At T1, a correlation was found between longer DUE and worst HRQoL. At T0, a negative correlation was found between VAS and PCS and between VAS and EHP-30. At T1, the same above correlation was found between VAS and PCS/MCS and VAS and EHP-30 scale. There was a correlation between ISS and VAS. ANOVA showed a reduction in dysmenorrhea, in general pain level and an improvement in emotional wellbeing, relationship with medical profession, and PCS over time, regardless to type of treatment. Moreover, a significant time × treatment group interaction for dysmenorrhea was found. CONCLUSION DUE and pain are important variables related to psychological aspects of women with endometriosis. Treatment with both DNG and EE/DNG may have positive effects on the QoL, HRQoL and symptoms. Moreover, DNG seems to have a greater effect than EE/DNG on dyspareunia reduction over time.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to determine the quality of life (QOL), in patients with endometriosis ± infertility (B and C groups) and compare those to healthy women, and also infertile groups without endometriosis as a control groups (A and D), considering the fact that endometriosis and infertility reduces the quality of life in patients. METHODS The present prospective comparative study was carried out between January 2018 and September 2020. A total of 400 women were included (100 women in each group). The participants filled in a validated questionnaire of quality of life, Endometriosis Health Profile-30 (EHP-30), and a visual analog scale of pain used, at the first visit, and 3 months after the medical or surgical treatment in the endometriosis group without infertility, additionally. RESULTS The majority of the patients were married, categorized in the middle-class of socio-economic state and housewives. They were of Persian descent. BMI was high in the infertile groups; however, the time of infertility was not different between the two groups of B and C (P = 0.054). The mean score of QOL was significantly lower in B, C, and D groups in comparison to the healthy women as the control group (A) (P < 0.001). Moreover, the infertile group (B), in comparison to endometriosis ± infertility groups (C and D), had the lowest mean score of QOL (P < 0.001). In each group, those who were older and had better educational level reported a better quality of life than other participants in that group. Social support plays a very important role in reducing the endometriosis related pain symptoms both before and after treatment. Three months after the treatment of endometriosis (D), a significant improvement was observed in all the aspects of QOL-related endometriosis. Nonetheless, the improvement of the quality of life in the surgical group was significantly higher than that in the medical treatment. The mean visual analog score of pain decreased from 62.22 ± 22.78, to 5.15 ± 2.73 following the surgical treatment (P < 0.001). CONCLUSION The lowest quality of life belonged to the infertile group, followed by the endometriosis group. The quality of life of the endometriosis group improved after the treatment. Thus, endometriotic patients' treatment in terms of improvement of quality of life should be considered by all professional health care teams.

Health-Related Quality of Life in Adult Spanish Women with Endometriomas or Deep Infiltrating Endometriosis: A Case-Control Study. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND PUBLIC HEALTH 2021; 18:ijerph18115586. [PMID: 34073723 PMCID: PMC8197209 DOI: 10.3390/ijerph18115586] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/14/2021] [Revised: 05/19/2021] [Accepted: 05/20/2021] [Indexed: 12/17/2022]
Abstract
Endometriosis is a disabling disease that may significantly compromise a woman’s social relationships, sexuality, and mental health. Considering the impact of endometriomas and deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) on quality of life and the limited number of papers on this topic, the objective of this study was to assess health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in adult Spanish women with the condition. A case-control study was conducted on a group of 99 patients with ovarian endometriomas or DIE and 157 controls. Women underwent physical and gynecological examinations, and they completed health questionnaires including the Short Form-12v2 (SF-12v2), a survey for HRQoL. Eight scales and two component summary scores (Physical (PCS) and Mental (MCS), respectively) were calculated. Women with endometriomas or DIE had significantly worse PCS: 47.7 ± 9.7 vs. 56.1 ± 5.9, respectively (p < 0.001) compared to controls, as well as lower scores on seven out of the eight scales (p < 0.01). No significant differences were found for the MCS. Conclusions: HRQoL was significantly lower in patients with endometriomas or DIE compared to controls. If confirmed, these results may have important implications for prevention, clinical practice, and intervention.

Abstract
Background The quality of life (QoL) of patients with endometriosis and infertility was assessed in different stages and correlated with the clinical features of the cases. Methods The present study was a cross-sectional study; 106 women were included, divided in two endometriosis groups (Grade I/II, 26 women, and Grade II/IV, 74 women). All participants attended the Endometriosis and Infertility Outpatient Clinic of the Instituto Ideia Fértil de Saúde Reprodutiva, Faculdade de Medicina do ABC, São Paulo, Brazil, were and responded to the Short Form (SF) Health Survey-36. Convenience sampling was used due to the authors’ access to the study population; however, the sample number was calculated to be sufficient for 95% power in both groups. Results Homogeneity was observed between Grade I/II and Grade III/IV staging, with similar mean ages (35.27, ±3.64 years and 34.04, ±3.39 years, respectively, p = 0.133); types of infertility (p = 0.535); infertility time (p = 0.654); degrees of pain (p = 0.849); and symptoms common to endometriosis, namely, dysmenorrhea (p = 0.841), dyspareunia (0.466), chronic pelvic pain (p = 0.295), and intestinal (p = 0.573) or urinary (p = 0.809) diseases. Comparisons of median scores in the QoL domains demonstrated that the distributions of QoL and clinical symptoms were significantly related between the types of dyspareunia and the following domains: physical functioning (p = 0.017), role- emotional (p = 0.013), and general health (p = 0.001). Regarding pain outside of menstruation, there was significance in the pain domain (p = 0.017), and degree of pain was significance in physical functioning (p = 0.005) and role-physical (p = 0.011) domains. Conclusions The present study pointed out that it is not the stage of endometriosis that interferes in the quality of life of women with endometriosis and infertility but rather the clinical manifestations, such as dyspareunia and pain. Thus, we can conclude that the patient’s perception of the disease should be considered in health care and that the losses are independent of the degree of endometriosis in this population with the aggravating factor of infertility.
