## Summary

**This resolution would designate March 2026 as Endometriosis Awareness Month**, centering public education, earlier detection, culturally competent care, and increased research into better treatments. It notes that endometriosis affects about 1 in 10 women of reproductive age, commonly causes chronic pain and infertility, and often faces diagnosis delays of 3 to 11 years with roughly 75 percent of cases misdiagnosed. The measure urges more education for health care providers, a commitment to support and fund research, and encourages Americans to observe the month with awareness and educational activities.
