Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

Services for the Treatment of Endometriosis: Endometriosis Association of Ireland

Ms B?bhinn Nic Liam:

There is an assumption that things will get better when one hits menopause, but I think that is sometimes said erroneously as a kind of light at the end of the tunnel.

Endometriosis has its own ecosystem. I have seen cases of surgery having been done on post-menopausal women with active endometriosis. It really depends on the individual case. Nobody should be fobbed off because they are of a certain age.
