This systematic review explored the role of psychosocial factors in Endometriosis, suggesting that these are associated with pain and health-related quality of life (HRQoL). Among the psychosocial factors included, anxiety, depression and catastrophising were the factors most often associated with pain and HRQoL in Endometriosis. These findings highlight the need to target psychological factors in the treatment of women with Endometriosis.
