Symptoms
Recognizing the red flags is crucial. Although endometriosis affects every woman differently, some symptoms are especially common and must not be dismissed
Diagnosis
The process of diagnosing endometriosis involves discussing your symptoms and undergoing specific tests. The journey to diagnosis is often long, which makes early detection crucial.
Treatments
Living with endometriosis shouldn’t mean living in pain. While there is no single cure, a variety of personalized approaches are available to manage your symptoms and improve your quality of life.
Endometriosis is a multifaceted disease that is not limited to a single symptom or organ. Its impact on pain, fertility, digestion, as well as psychological well-being and daily life, requires expertise that goes beyond a single specialty. This is why a stand-alone approach is often insufficient. We believe that the key to successful management lies in collaboration and the pooling of knowledge to offer each patient a 360° view of their health.
The Geneva Endometriosis Network was created to embody this vision. It brings together passionate specialists, including gynecologists, specialized surgeons, radiologists, fertility specialists, algologists (pain doctors), physiotherapists, nutritionists, and psychologists. Working in a coordinated manner, our specialists share their diagnoses and develop personalized and integrated treatment strategies. For you, this means a smoother care pathway, faster diagnoses and the assurance that every aspect of your well-being is taken into consideration.
Our primary mission is to break isolation and reduce medical wandering. We direct each patient to the right specialists within our multidisciplinary network. By ensuring seamless communication between experts (gynecologists, radiologists, physiotherapists, etc.), we ensure a coordinated, rapid, and personalized care pathway for an accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment.

The Specialists Who Support You
Gynecology
At the heart of your journey, our gynecologists provide monitoring, prescribe treatments and perform surgical interventions when necessary.
Radiology
Our specialized radiologists perform the imaging examinations (ultrasound, MRI) essential for making an accurate diagnosis and mapping lesions.
Urology
The urologist intervenes when endometriosis affects the urinary system, particularly the bladder and ureters, to preserve their proper functioning.
Digestive Surgery
The digestive surgery expert is essential for treating endometriosis damage to the intestines, colon or rectum, often in collaboration with the gynecologist.
Gastroenterology
The gastroenterologist is vital for the differential diagnosis. Their expertise makes it possible to distinguish the symptoms of digestive endometriosis—often mistaken for Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) from other gastrointestinal pathologies, such as inflammatory (Crohn’s, UC), infectious, or tumoral conditions. Identifying the cyclical nature of these symptoms is crucial to ending the diagnostic odyssey and determining the appropriate management strategy.
Pain Medicine (Algology)
Our pain specialists offer personalized strategies to manage chronic pain, using both drug and non-drug approaches.
Integrative, Functional Medicine, and Micronutrition
Beyond conventional treatments, our network also explores the contributions of integrative and functional medicine. These holistic approaches aim to identify and address deep-seated imbalances in the body, considering the interaction between environment, lifestyle, and genetics. Micronutrition, in particular, focuses on optimizing the intake of vitamins, minerals, and trace elements to support cellular functions, reduce inflammation, and enhance overall well-being. By combining these disciplines, we offer a comprehensive approach that strengthens the body’s resilience and promotes a better quality of daily life.
Physiotherapy and Manual Therapy
Specializing in the pelvic area, physiotherapy and manual therapies help relieve muscle tension, reduce pain, and improve your daily comfort.
Traditional Chinese Medicine
In addition to classical approaches, it aims to rebalance the body’s energies to help manage pain and improve general well-being.
Psychology
Psychological support is valuable in helping you live better with the illness, manage anxiety, stress and the emotional impact of chronic pain.
