This chapter discusses the idea that endometriosis affects quality of life and explains how “quality of life” has been defined and used in medical literature since the 1960s, including in health care contexts as patient-level well-being encompassing mental and physical health, work, leisure, safety, and sexual/reproductive health. It describes how quality of life can be measured with questionnaires across multiple indicators and notes that chronic endometriosis may influence these everyday aspects. The authors mention the existence of various quality-of-life instruments, some used specifically in endometriosis contexts, giving examples such as the SF-36 and its shortened version SF-12. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — it focuses on the misconception and framing that endometriosis affects patients’ quality of life and on how that concept is measured.
