Endometriosis Telehealth Care in Illinois
Luteal Health is licensed to provide telehealth care to patients physically located in Illinois. The entry point is a 45-minute Endo Pain Signature for $149. Typically within a few business days of your visit, you receive your Endo Pain Signature — a personalized PDF report mapping your pain mechanisms, your six-system profile, and your starting priorities.
This is care for the chronic, inflammatory, and systemic side of endometriosis — the work mainstream OB-GYN visits don’t have time for. It is not a surgical practice and does not replace your in-person team.
Endometriosis Telehealth for Illinois Patients
If you’re in Illinois and have cycled through OB-GYN visits that ended with “try birth control” or “we’ll do surgery and see,” Luteal Health was built for the part nobody else has time for. Endometriosis is a chronic systemic condition. Inflammation, nervous system regulation, gut function, hormonal signaling, and the somatic patterns the body learns from years of pain all drive how much endo controls your life — and none of them are addressed in a 15-minute appointment.
What This Practice Is — and What It Isn’t
Luteal Health is a telehealth practice focused on the chronic, inflammatory, and somatic drivers of endometriosis. The Endo Pain Signature maps your pain mechanisms across six body systems and produces a personalized Endo Pain Signature report.
This is not a surgical practice. Heather does not diagnose endometriosis surgically or perform procedures. If surgery is on the table, your in-person surgical team is the right place to make that decision. Luteal Health fits the work that determines how your body heals around it — before surgery, after surgery, or instead of surgery, depending on your case.
Illinois Licensing and Scope
Heather Yoshimura, NP, MSN is licensed through the Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation (IDFPR) as an Advanced Practice Registered Nurse with prescriptive authority. For Illinois patients, she takes a thorough symptom history, reviews your prior labs and op reports, prescribes medications to any Illinois pharmacy, and builds a personalized chronic-care plan for endometriosis.
Pelvic exams, surgery, definitive surgical diagnosis, and in-person procedures are out of scope and require an in-person provider.

The Endo Pain Signature is $149, paid at booking. Cash-pay only. HSA and FSA cards are accepted. Superbills are available for out-of-network reimbursement from commercial IL insurance plans that include OON benefits. Insurance is not billed directly. Illinois Medicaid is not accepted, and superbills cannot be submitted for Medicaid reimbursement.
