What is an endometriosis fellowship?

An endometriosis fellowship is advanced surgical and clinical training in the diagnosis and treatment of endometriosis, including deep disease, adenomyosis and chronic pelvic pain. In most countries this training is delivered through a minimally invasive gynecologic surgery (MIGS) fellowship or a complex benign gynecology program rather than a stand-alone credential.
