HealthBoards - View Single Post - Would having endometriosis make you more susceptible to illness?

I get sick a lot. Really much more than a healthy person should, to the point where I hide the fact that I'm sick from people because I'm tired of hearing "You're sick AGAIN?".

I was diagnosed with endometriosis very recently, and it definitely explains a lot about the hell that I've been dealing with for years now. If my being sick a lot is somehow connected it would definitely explain a lot more..

I read somewhere that endometriosis can mess with your immune system, thus making it easier for you to get sick.

Is this true?
