What this trial studies

This interventional study tests a specialized at-home kit designed to aid people with endometriosis who experience pain during sexual activity. The study uses the Sexual Activity Questionnaire (SAQ) to capture how treatment affects sexual function, including activity frequency, pleasure, and pain perception. Eligible participants are women aged 18–45 with diagnosed endometriosis who have pain during sex and are sexually active, enrolled through a French health system setting. Data will focus on feasibility, user experience, and potential improvements in sexual function and quality of life.
