Predictors of anxiety in endometriosis patients
We were able to show that higher levels of ongoing anxiety in endometriosis patients are associated with dyspareunia and ovarian endometriosis, which may have a negative impact on partnership and desire to have children. On the other hand, patients with persistent endometriosis or a type of disease that requires surgery have higher levels of immediate situational anxiety.
