子宫内膜异位症是众所周知的影响工作效率。COVID-19疫情导致许多人的工作方式发生转变，在家工作及╱或弹性工作时间增加。这项在线横断面研究的目的是确定这些变化是否会导致澳大利亚子宫内膜异位症患者的症状管理和生产力的变化。389人对调查作出了答复。大多数受访者发现他们的子宫内膜异位症症状更容易管理，而且更有成效。一个关键因素是工作时间的灵活性和自我管理时间的能力提高。
Endometriosis is known to impact work productivity. The COVID-19 pandemic resulted in a shift in working practices for many, with an increase in working from home and/or flexible working hours. The aim of this online cross-sectional study was to determine if these changes resulted in changes in symptom management and productivity in Australian people with endometriosis. Three hundred and eighty-nine people responded to the survey. The majority of respondents found that their endometriosis symptoms were much easier to manage, and they were more productive. A key factor was flexibility in work hours and the increased ability to self-manage their time.
