This cross-sectional quantitative study evaluated health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in 35 women with endometriosis recruited from a gynecology and pelvic pain outpatient clinic in a public hospital in São Paulo, and examined associations between HRQoL and sociodemographic/clinical variables, anxiety, depression, and pain. HRQoL showed overall impairments (mean 68.9), with the greatest losses in sexual relations and treatment sections, and there was no association between HRQoL and sociodemographic variables or health history. Spearman-based analyses indicated no significant association between HRQoL and anxiety symptoms (p=0.064), but HRQoL was associated with depression symptoms (p=0.001) and with pain (p<0.001); the study’s main limitation is its small, cross-sectional sample that prevents causal inference. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — it assesses HRQoL impairments and their associations with depression and pain (and non-association with anxiety) in women with endometriosis.
