Unique National research The “critical” effect for England has been demonstrated, with gynecological condition endometriosis on the ability to earn and work women.

Researchers suggest that after diagnosis, women may take low-pay jobs or work short hours.

Charity endometriosis UK called the workplaces to provide “support, understanding and proper adjustment for” endometriosis “to” maintain talented employees “.

A government spokesperson said that they were “committed to meet the needs of healthcare women, when they need it, so that everyone could live a healthy, productive life”.

The office of the National Statistics (ONS) has first seen the impact on the results of the labor market in England.

Endometriosis is the place where the tissue similar to the lining of the womb grows out of it, sometimes causing weak symptoms. The disease can leave women, or change their jobs.

After studying unknown official medicine and payroll data of more than 55,000 women, after receiving the diagnosis of endometriosis at NHS Hospital, there was a decrease in monthly income in England between 25 and 54 age group.

In the work paid, among those, there was an average decrease of £ 56 per month in four to five years of diagnosis, compared to the two -year period before learning their condition.

Research also found an endometriosis diagnosis of a payment employee “quite low”, which is decreasing by 2.7 percent marks after four to five years of diagnosis.

Emily Jones was 11 years old when she first felt the symptoms of her endometriosis. She experienced a very painful period, causing her vomiting and unconscious.

As long as she was 31 years old, she was not diagnosed, by that time she was working as a chef and operated to try to deal with the situation. After working for two weeks, she returned and knew that the job was not sustainable.

“This is a male-oriented region and was not understood yet. When my symptoms were bad, I could not leave quickly-I had no one to cover.”

Emily resigned and completed the ends to take freelance work so that it could lift its hours.

Emily is far from alone to convert her working life into her position. Research by ONs, which is the first population-wide analysis made in England so far, suggests many women to experience similar conditions.

Isobel ward, who led the work in ONS, stated that their findings indicate that diagnosis “women can reduce their work hours, go into low-pay jobs, get self-employed or benefited Is doing”.

Endometriosis UK Estimate One of the six women with condition has to leave the workplace.

Charity CEO Emma Cox said: “People with symptoms of endometriosis should not worry about losing their jobs, changing career or feeling restricted in types of tasks they can.

“We need employers to understand endometriosis, and to remove myths and embarrassment about period and menstrual health, and support our employees.”

Ms. Cox said that by doing so she would be able to “maintain talented employees”.

Ms. Cox highlighted the need for rapid NHS diagnosis and treatment for women, something that the government is working to achieve.

A spokesman for health and social care said: “This government is committed to meeting the needs of healthcare women when they need it, so that everyone can live a healthy, productive life.

“Our alternative improvement plan determines how the NHS will meet the target waiting time for 18-week, which means that pre-diagnosis and treatment for gynecological conditions such as endometriosis.”

ONS is part of a range of research work, which is funded by the Treasury, for this to detect some health care interventions and diagnose on earning and employment status. Other conditions were examined, or due to viewing, bariatric surgery, therapy and prevention of diabetes.
