This retrospective descriptive study analyzed the medical records of 225 women treated at a private clinic in Cascavel, Brazil, between January 2022 and August 2025. The researchers evaluated gastrointestinal manifestations, neuropsychiatric symptoms, and evaculatory function to determine their prevalence among patients with endometriosis. Results indicated that intestinal symptoms were present in 95.6% of participants, primarily featuring bloating, constipation, and defecation pain, while coexisting anxiety and depressive symptoms affected 67.6% of the cohort. These findings highlight a strong association between intestinal alterations, chronic pain, and neuropsychiatric issues, emphasizing the multifactorial nature of the disease and the need for interdisciplinary management. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — specifically investigating the high prevalence of associated intestinal and psychiatric symptoms in affected women.
