Can endometriosis cause nausea and vomiting?

Yes—endometriosis can cause nausea and, for some patients, vomiting. Inflammation in the abdomen, irritation of pelvic organs (especially the bowel), and the body’s nervous-system response to severe pain can all trigger queasiness.

Many people notice nausea is most intense around their period or during pelvic pain flares, and it may travel with other symptoms like cramping, bloating, or bowel changes. If vomiting is frequent or severe, our team will want to evaluate hydration risk and also look for other gastrointestinal causes happening alongside (or instead of) endometriosis so we can address the full picture and help you feel better.
