This brief report summarizes a 2015 study by Mira and colleagues that evaluated the effectiveness of transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation as a complementary pain treatment for women suffering from deep infiltrating endometriosis. The authors note that despite available surgical and hormonal options, many patients continue to experience chronic pelvic pain and dyspareunia, prompting an investigation into whether TENS could improve their symptoms and quality of life. The paper highlights this specific intervention as a potential supportive measure for managing persistent discomfort in this patient population. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — specifically focusing on non-pharmacological pain management strategies for deep infiltrating disease.
