How weather affects endometriosis

Not every weather factor hits every condition the same way. These are the inputs our Endometriosis scoring model weighs most heavily — and in Boise (Mountain & Southwest), they interact with the local climate pattern: Phoenix and Denver — high-desert and mountain-altitude conditions and their impact on chronic symptoms.

Barometric pressure changes

25% of score

Barometric pressure drops are associated with increased pelvic pain in endometriosis patients, consistent with the broader chronic pain literature on pressure sensitivity.

Temperature

25% of score

Cold may worsen pelvic pain through increased muscle tension and vasoconstriction, though endometriosis pain is primarily driven by hormonal and inflammatory factors. Warm, stable conditions generally reduce symptoms.

Humidity

20% of score

High humidity increases bloating and fluid retention, which worsens pelvic pressure and pain. Low humidity can increase systemic inflammation.

Daily temperature swings

15% of score

Temperature instability can trigger inflammatory responses and worsen the fatigue and pain associated with endometriosis.

Air quality

15% of score

Air quality may affect systemic inflammation levels. Note: evidence linking daily AQI fluctuations to endometriosis symptoms is not established. The Nurses' Health Study II found no significant association between air pollution exposure and endometriosis incidence.

Research behind the Endometriosis model

  • Horne AW, Missmer SA. 'Pathophysiology, diagnosis, and management of endometriosis.' BMJ. 2022;379:e070750.
  • Chapron C, et al. 'Rethinking mechanisms, diagnosis and management of endometriosis.' Nature Reviews Endocrinology. 2019;15(11):666-682.
  • Missmer SA, et al. Nurses' Health Study II — found no significant association between air pollution exposure and endometriosis incidence. (Note: This study addresses incidence — new disease development — not acute symptom exacerbation in diagnosed patients. No exacerbation studies exist. Cited as strongest available evidence against an air pollution-endometriosis connection, acknowledging the incidence/exacerbation distinction.)

Felt That is not a medical service. Forecast scores describe weather conditions associated with symptom changes in published research and community-reported patterns — they are not medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Individual responses to weather vary widely. Always consult your healthcare provider about managing your condition.
