Living with endometriosis

An endometriosis symptom tracker for pain that has been called normal for too long

A chronic illness tracker and gentle companion that already knows what endometriosis can involve — so you do not have to explain it from scratch.

What endometriosis can involve

Endometriosis is a condition where tissue similar to the lining of the womb grows elsewhere in the body, most often around the pelvis. It can cause severe period pain, pelvic pain at other times of the month, pain during or after sex, painful bowel or bladder symptoms, bloating, fatigue and difficulty getting pregnant.

It is common — around 1 in 10 women and people assigned female at birth — and yet diagnosis takes years, because the pain is so often dismissed as something to put up with. A month-by-month record of what actually happened is very hard to wave away.

On average it takes 9 years and 4 months from a first GP visit to get a diagnosis of endometriosis in the UK.

How a day can feel

If your days sound anything like this, taluvu was made with you in mind.

  • “I was told this is normal period pain. It is not.”
  • “I plan my whole month around my cycle.”
  • “I am so tired of being sent away.”
  • “It took years for anyone to take me seriously.”
  • “The pain reaches into parts of my life nobody asks about.”

These are the kinds of things taluvu invites you to say in your own words — never a checklist of what anyone “should” have.

What taluvu helps you keep track of

Choose Endometriosis and it starts you with a palette, not a blank form.

These are things people living with endometriosis often want to keep an eye on. Remove any you do not need, add your own, and check in with a few taps on the days you have very little to give.

  • Period pain
  • Fatigue
  • Bloating (endo belly)
  • Nausea
  • Back or leg pain
