Endometriosis Study: Impact on Work Ability in Midlife Women
A recent study published in Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica has shed light on the relationship between endometriosis and work ability. This is the first general population-level study to examine this association using a life course approach to disability retirement.
The research, conducted by Katrin B. Balog, Monica K. Risnes, and Anders L. Andersen, found that endometriosis does not appear to be linked with unemployment or early retirement in women aged mid-40s to early 50s. However, it is associated with poor work symptoms and more sick days in this age group. The study highlights the impact of endometriosis on work life, even in later stages of life.
While endometriosis does not seem to influence unemployment or early retirement in women aged mid-40s to early 50s, it does affect work symptoms and sick days. This study provides valuable insights into the long-term effects of endometriosis on work life, emphasizing the need for support and understanding in the workplace.
