This critical literature review aimed to present findings from studies assessing the prevalence and/or levels of depression and anxiety in women with endometriosis. Using a bibliographic search in PubMed, LILACS, and Web of Science, the authors read 21 selected articles; 11 evaluated depression and anxiety together, nine assessed depression alone, and one assessed anxiety alone. The review reports that women with endometriosis show elevated levels of depression and anxiety, with the authors attributing this “probably” to frequent pain, infertility, diagnostic delays, and disease recurrence. The paper does not state a specific methodological limitation of the included evidence beyond its selection process, but it concludes that psychological follow-up should be an essential component in managing this gynecological condition. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — it is a critical review of depression and anxiety prevalence and levels in women with endometriosis.
