Brief summary (from the registry)
YOGENDOCHIR is a multicentre, prospective, randomised, controlled, parallel-group study involving 188 adult women scheduled to undergo surgery for endometriosis. The study compares standard surgical management alone with the same management combined with a structured perioperative yoga therapy programme comprising 32 guided sessions (16 before and 16 after surgery), supplemented by a secure digital platform supporting independent practice and adherence monitoring. The primary objective is to assess the effect of yoga therapy on endometriosis-related pain, as measured by the pain subscale of the Endometriosis Health Profile-30 (EHP-30). Participants are assessed before surgery and at 3, 6, and 12 months after the procedure. Secondary outcomes include quality of life, pain characteristics, fatigue, sleep, anxiety and depressive symptoms, sexual health, kinesiophobia, activities of daily living, medication use, healthcare utilisation, absenteeism, adherence, satisfaction, and the participants' ability to use the platform independently.
