The Endo Deep Dive

All patients start here.

A 75-minute call with me. I listen to your whole history, then we go through the six systems that contribute to endo pain, one by one — so you leave with a real idea of what’s still contributing to your pain.

Endo care is fragmented. Surgery looks at the lesions. The Deep Dive looks at everything around them — so for the first time, you can see the whole picture.

The six systems we go over

Hormones  ·  Gut  ·  Mind & body  ·  Nervous system  ·  Immune health  ·  Lifestyle

Six systems. One conversation.

Lesions can start endo pain, but they’re rarely the only thing keeping it going. On your Deep Dive, we go through each of these together.

01

Nervous system

Whether your pain system has become sensitized and is turning the volume up on pain signals.

02

Hormones

How your cycle, estrogen, and progesterone may be feeding your flares.

03

Gut

Bloating, bowel symptoms, and how the gut and pelvis talk to each other.

04

Immune health

Inflammation and immune patterns that can keep pain going after surgery.

05

Mind & body

Stress, years of being dismissed, and how both shape the way pain is felt.

06

Lifestyle

Sleep, movement, food, and the daily load your body is carrying.

03

Your 75-minute call

Your full history, finally heard. We go through all six systems together, and you leave knowing what’s still contributing to your pain.

If your pain outlived your surgery, there’s finally a name for it.

In early 2026, at the Endometriosis Summit, surgeon Dr. Andrea Vidali described endometriosis as a neuroinflammatory condition that can behave like long COVID. The lesions may start it, but over years of inflammation the disease can change the body itself, reaching into the nervous system, the immune system, and the gut. So the surgery can technically work, and the pain, the fatigue, and the gut issues can stay. A growing number of specialists are calling this long endo.

This is not ‘it’s in your head.’ It’s how pain wiring physically changes after years of flares, and it’s treatable.

Your symptoms aren’t a dozen separate problems. They’re one picture, and it finally has a name.

Does this sound like you?

  • ·Pain that unhooked from your cycle and now shows up any time
  • ·Pain that came back, or never left, after surgery
  • ·Pain that spread: back, hips, legs, bladder, gut, jaw
  • ·IBS-type bloating, period migraines, fatigue and brain fog that rest doesn’t fix
  • ·A bladder that burns with clean test results

The Endo Deep Dive looks at which parts of this are active in your body, so you know what to treat.

Long endo is an emerging framework, not yet an official diagnosis. It’s a starting point to bring to a clinician who can examine you.

After your Deep Dive

What happens next?

Path One

Take it and run.

You leave knowing what’s still contributing to your pain. Take that to your own care team, or use it to guide your next steps — no strings attached.

Path Two

Work with me in the Protocol.

If it’s a fit, I’ll invite you into The Endo Recovery Protocol — four months of coordinated, whole-body care across all six systems.

Your questions, answered.

Do you take insurance?+−
Luteal Health is cash-pay. We provide a detailed superbill you can submit to your insurance for possible out-of-network reimbursement, and we accept FSA and HSA. Staying out of network is what lets every visit be a full, unhurried appointment focused entirely on you.
Which states do you serve?+−
Telehealth visits are available to women located in Colorado, Illinois, Arizona, and New York, where Heather is licensed.
Do I need a referral?+−
No referral is needed. Every patient starts with a free 15-minute call with me to see if we’re a good fit. If we are, you'll fill out a short intake before your Endo Deep Dive, and I read every one myself.
What exactly is the Endo Deep Dive?+−
A 75-minute telehealth visit with me. We go over the six systems that contribute to endo pain — hormones, gut, mind/body, nervous system, immune health, and lifestyle — and by the end of the call you have a clear idea of what’s still contributing to your pain. It’s $389.
What is The Endo Recovery Protocol?+−
A four-month program — eight visits, one provider, a graduation plan — of coordinated, whole-body care across all six systems. It is offered by invitation after your Endo Deep Dive, when it is clinically appropriate.
Is this a replacement for my surgeon or OB-GYN?+−
No. Luteal Health complements your existing care. We treat everything around the lesions that conventional endo care often leaves unaddressed — and coordinate with the rest of your team.
What if I haven’t had surgery yet?+−
The Endo Deep Dive is still appropriate. Many patients use it to get clarity before deciding whether surgery is right for them.
