Our mission
Our mission is to support anyone affected by endometriosis, adenomyosis, PCOS or pelvic pain. We are passionate about empowering them and their support networks through support, education, awareness and championing research to ensure they feel informed, supported and able to manage their condition.
Why I love working with
QENDO
"Volunteering for QENDO has allowed me to help empower others, the way that QENDO has empowered me. Endometriosis sucks and it is made a little bit easier knowing there is support for those like me out there. I am proud to be a part of a group of inspiring, passionate and dedicated volunteers. I am part of a team that looks out for people just like me. It's not a job, it's family."

Our history
Inaugurated in 1988, the Endometriosis Association (Qld) Inc. aimed to provide education, information and support to women affected by endometriosis in Queensland. We established the world’s only endometriosis support line and developed our face to face support groups, called ‘EndoMeets’. From our humble beginning over 30 years ago, we are now known as ‘QENDO’ and support anyone affected by endometriosis, adenomyosis, PCOS or infertility, across Australia. We have also developed a number of relationships and work closely with research facilities and organisations. Our support line is still in operation, and is available for people to use all over the world.
