You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
The Disability Discrimination Act (DDA) and the Equality Act don't name specific medical conditions. In most cases, it’s the impact on the person’s life that qualifies them for support or protection under the law.
You can find out more about showing that you're disabled under the Equality Act here:

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do to support people who are suffering from endometriosis.
You might like to sign this petition, which calls for an awareness campaign about endometriosis:
