Feel the Frequency: Samphire Neuroscience The Neuroscience of Endometriosis

Imagine living with chronic pelvic pain for years without answers - this is the reality for 1 in 10 people with endometriosis in the UK, who wait an average of eight years for a diagnosis. Despite its prevalence, understanding of how it interacts with the brain and nervous system remains limited. 

Join neuroscientist Dr Emilė Radytė for a science-led session exploring the mechanisms behind endometriosis pain. 

You’ll go beyond the reproductive organs to uncover how the brain, nerves, and inflammation interact to shape pain, fatigue, mood, and daily function. Discover why endometriosis pain is fundamentally different from “period pain,” and why it can become persistent or widespread. 

What You’ll Learn: 

• How endometriosis interacts with the nervous system 
• Why pain can become persistent, amplified, or unpredictable 
• The brain-pelvis connection, including cognition, inflammation, fatigue, and mood 
• The neural mechanisms that distinguish endometriosis pain from primary dysmenorrhea 
• Emerging research reshaping chronic pelvic pain treatment 
• Evidence-based supports that may help with pain regulation, mood, and energy 
• Live Q&A with Dr Emilė Radytė
