Primary outcomePrimary: PROMIS Pain Interference SF 8a — -1.62 t-score
Summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to test the effectiveness of the Peer Empowered Endometriosis Pain Support (PEEPS) program in people living with endometriosis-related pelvic pain. The main question[s] it aims to answer are:
* Is PEEPS effective at decreasing pain interference and improving patient-reported quality of life outcomes?
* What are the barriers and facilitators to PEEPS implementation? Participants will engage in eight weekly 2-hour sessions led by an endometriosis specialist, pain psychologist, pelvic floor physical therapist, and yoga instructor. At these sessions they will participate in peer support, education, mindfulness, and yoga.
