title: Endometriosis in Hungary.
abstract: Endometriosis is a growing healthcare problem all around the world. I discuss in this article how the hungarian healthcare system is working and helping patients suffering from endometriosis. I discuss all diagnostic and therapeutic possibilities which are available for the patients. I discuss also some data from my own practice, 181 patients suffering from chronic pelvic pain caused by endometriosis.
