Life Insurance with Endometriosis

What are my chances of getting mortgage cover with endometriosis?

Excellent.

Endometriosis is not life-threatening so you should be able to get the same price that everyone else pays.

i.e. the insurer shouldn’t add a loading to the price of your policy

What questions will the insurance company ask?

When underwriting an application for life insurance with endometriosis, the insurance company will request the following information:

• When were you diagnosed with endometriosis?
• How severe is your endometriosis? (describe your symptoms)
• Have you had surgery? (any complications?)
• Are you currently taking medication for endometriosis?
• Do you go for regular checkups with your gynaecologist?
• Have any of your family contracted cancer of the uterus or ovaries?

Will I need to do a medical?

It’s very unlikely.

There’s a small chance the insurance company will write to your GP for a medical report.

Here’s a handy chart explaining how the insurers decide whether to offer you cover.

How much will my cover cost?

Once there are no complications, you should get the normal price for life insurance, mortgage protection and Serious Illness Cover.

If you’re applying for income protection, there may be an exclusion for absence from work due to endometriosis.
