Recruiting now
Conditions studied: Endometriosis
In brief
Gathering some information obtained during the gynaecological examination and transvaginal ultrasound check-up to be able to assess the prevalence of Central Sensitisation Syndrome (CSS) in women with endometriosis and also to be able to assess related risk factors. CSS has been defined as an algic syndrome due to a hyperactivation of the sensitivity circuit at a central level; the diagnosis is based on the result obtained from a questionnaire, the Central Sensitisation Inventory (CSI), which evaluates the presence and intensity of 25 clinical symptoms. For this reason, a questionnaire is proposed to be completed at the time of the check-up visit.
