Brief summary: There is no specific treatment for endometriosis, because the pathophysiology is poorly understood.

Adapted physical activity (APA) is recognized as a beneficial supportive care for patients suffering from chronic pathology. Adapted physical activity can play a role in managing endometriosis symptoms. Studies have shown that regular physical exercise can help reduce pain, improve quality of life and alleviate symptoms related to chronic diseases.

However, it is known that few women with endometriosis have regular physical activity because of pain, chronic fatigue that lead to activity limitation or even disability.

This study provides an opportunity to evaluate the impact of regular APA practice on improving the quality of life and symptoms of women with endometriosis in Martinique.

Based on this, APA could be included in the endometriosis care pathway in Martinique.

Detailed description: The investigators' hypothesis is that APA improves the overall quality of life of women with endometriosis and also has a positive impact on pain, functional abilities and sleep. The effectiveness of the proposed adapted physical activity program also improves the psycho-social and professional impact of the disease in the daily lives of patients.
