Newsletter -- published 4-6 times a year
The latest medical and research news, timely features on
major topics of concern and interest, excerpts from research studies, book reviews, and
Association news. Members tell us that the newsletters provide the hope and help they need
-- and the best information anywhere on how to cope with endometriosis. Because of the
extremely personal nature of the disease and the sharing related to it in our newsletters
and groups, we do not distribute the newsletter, contact names, etc., to non-members.
EA Member Chat Room
The EA Member Chat Room was designed for members to
"chat" with other members about endometriosis. Go to EA Chat Room to see the schedule of events as well as to register
to participate in the next chat.
Chapters and Support Groups, Correspondence
Networks, Local Contacts
Where chapters and affiliated groups exist, membership
provides the opportunity to be part of local activities. You may network with other women
near you with endometriosis to help you find support and understanding, a good doctor, and
tips for coping with this disease.
Family/Teen Program
The Association now offers special family memberships to
support teens with endo. Membership will ensure that you and your family receive
information available on endometriosis. Go to Family/Teen Program
to read more about this special program.
Crisis Call Help
Members may call trained crisis call counselors listed in the
newsletters. Our volunteers can help with decisions related to endometriosis, suggest
other resources for a particular problem, or just listen in times of pain or anxiety.
Accurate, Useful Literature, Videotapes, and
Audiotapes
Our material has been highly praised for the succinct,
factual, and direct way it answers the questions most of us have in the course of coping
with endometriosis. You can't find better lay materials on endometriosis anywhere. See
catalog for more information..
