Provide comprehensive statutory support for endometriosis sufferers.

Provide comprehensive statutory support for endometriosis sufferers. — 11 signatures. Status: rejected.

Petition background

We call on the UK Government to introduce a statutory framework providing healthcare funding, employment protections, a holistic care pathway, and robust financial support—including National Insurance and income tax relief models—for all individuals diagnosed with endometriosis.

Additional details

Endometriosis affects 1 in 10 women in the UK. Ten-year diagnostic delays leave sufferers without legal or financial safety nets. Statutory measures must: • Healthcare: Funding for fast diagnosis, free prescriptions, and holistic care (physio, nutrition, pain management). • Workplace: Recognise fluctuating conditions under the Equality Act 2010. • Finance: Guarantee PIP access, create self-employed tax reliefs (Trading Allowance/Class 4 NICs), and enhance SSP. End the decades of silent pain.
