简要总结
The goal of this study is to examine the sleep-pain relationship in women diagnosed with endometriosis, by monitoring different symptoms of endometriosis and sleep through an experience sample method study (ESM).The main question it aims to answer is:
How does sleep impact cyclic and chronic pain and vice versa in women with endometriosis?
Participants will be asked to fill in a 6-item diary (twice a day) over the course of 2 months.

研究组 & 干预措施
Cyclic pain
Women eligible for the study are adult, non-(post)menopausal individuals who have received a laparoscopic and histopathological diagnosis of en-dometriosis. They have been experiencing cyclic pain (before, during, and/or after menstruation or monthly flare-ups without menstruation) for at least two months. Participants do not expect to undergo gynecologic or other surgical procedures for en-dometriosis during the study period and are not pregnant or breastfeeding. They must have no external factors interfering with their sleep for three or more nights per week, such as work, noise, or caregiving responsibilities.
intervention: 6 item diary twice a day over the course of 2 months.
干预措施: ecological sampling method (Other)
Non-cyclical pain
Women eligible for the study are adult, non-(post)menopausal individuals who have received a laparoscopic and histopathological diagnosis of en-dometriosis. They have been experiencing non-cyclic pain for at least six months. Participants do not expect to undergo gynecologic or other surgical procedures for en-dometriosis during the study period and are not pregnant or breastfeeding. They must have no external factors interfering with their sleep for three or more nights per week, such as work, noise, or caregiving responsibilities.
intervention: 6 item diary twice a day over the course of 2 months.
