Endometriosis, PCOS (🙋), Ovarian Cancer, etc...All of these diseases are things that plague women, but are rarely talked about. Thanks for taking the time share your story.
These are all hormone related. Endometriosis and fibroids are caused by high estrogen. PCOS is caused by low progestrone and estrogen. I have been dealing with half diagnosed endometriosis and breast lumps for years but I decided to heal my best naturally and with herbs. My diet Is all the way different and I supplement with herbs to boost immunity and stabilize my hormones.
@@campbecy They're not all hormone related, endometriosis is mainly due to a genetic mutation which affects development of the female reproductive organs and the cause of PCOS is for the most part unknown (however the symptoms occur due to higher male hormones in the body). For PCOS one treatment I've seen help is losing weight and taking tablets prescribed by the doctor to help regulate the hormones, it helps to regulate the periods a bit more and helps with the other symptoms
Fed up I think you guys need to do a lot more research. In theory the cause of endometriosis is unknown but it Is strongly linked to estrogen dominance. To my knowledge no one in my family has uterine endometriosis however, I started getting symptoms and all of sudden I had all the signs of endometriosis. I was not fully diagnosed because I denied the surgery and decided to go the natural route and Tia talked about it in her book. I went on a no sugar, no diary, gluten and meat diet and I will seldom have eggs, fish or chicken like every few months. During the journey I found out that endometriosis is also linked to parasites which causes the inflammation. I’ve done parasite cleanses and I have actually seen tons of eggs and parasites. I have been on a protocol to balance my estrogen and progesterone since last summer because my doctor had me on birth control before. The first few months after birth control were brutal but now my periods are regular, 50% less bleeding and wayyyy less painful. 🤗 I forgot to add that I have do not eat high estrogenic foods other than meat like most beans and soy. When I was younger I thought painful cramps and heavy bleeding were normal and would go home from high school to curl up in a ball. The reason why Pcos becomes more under control after dieting is because they are mostly over weight and eat whatever they want. The liver becomes over worked and doesn’t process the hormones well. Read Tia’s book or just research journals on internal inflammation and its link to hormone imbalance.
Te'ylor Beck Do not Take what the doctor prescribes, they’re just bandages for what will be a long term alignment. Someone I work with actually changed her diet but she wasn’t super over weight and she conceived within a few few months. She said she will be eating healthier in general going forward so it doesn’t affect her again in the future. You can also look into calcium d glucarate and DIM. You also need more estrogenic healthy foods like beens fruits and veggies, try for a minimum of 3 months and see how it goes for you. Cheers!
@@TEWMUCH honestly, the only thing that has truly helped has been the right vitamin combination. I recently shared on my channel. It took me years to finds the right combination.
Right! Yes ma’am! I’ve recently been focusing my attention to Takin care of my nutrient deficiencies as well.! I’m hoping that’ll help me accomplish some of my health goals. I’ve experienced with things like veganism and whole food plant based. And I don’t think I did it right cuz I was lackin nutrients and always felt deprived and hungry.
I struggle with it. I feared for years that it would prevent me from becoming pregnant. I'm expecting my first son in two weeks:) Thank you for sharing.
I had endometriosis at 17 and PCOS at 19. I'm now 25 with baby number 3 on the way! Thank you for sharing your story. These are very real conditions and should not be ignored.
Krista Smith did you have to change your diet to lose weight or did you take something to get pregnant . I have PCOS I changed my diet and lost a lot of weight but still haven’t got my period yet
I had surgery at 17 and at 19 and I would drink lots of teas and eat foods that would keep it at bay. I did lose weight but all 3 times I got pregnant I wasn't really trying and I was also on a birth control pill to help keep my cycle regular. Hope this helps!
@@joelkamau1411 you have to change your diet drastically. This helps in any illness... Do research on juicing, raw veggies meals and what food to avoid such as Dairy, sugar, sodas and juice, processed food like canned, frozen, red meat and have occasional organic chicken or beef. Bone Broth is good. fermented foods.... Dont give up. ask God for help and healing anf guidance too
I have endometriosis. I was diagnosed last year and undergone surgery last year as well. my ob removed my left ovary and fallopian tube and she told me i only had 50% chance of being pregnant. but hey, 4 months later, im pregnant.. yassssss
Courtney Reynolds honey you aren’t alone. I was diagnosed 3 yrs ago and had my 2nd surgery last week and I love this video have to change diets. Take care of yourself
Not sure how is best but contact me. I was diagnosed at 18 started at 15 and now am 32. I was alone, no one I knew understood or even got what a bad period was etc. Xxx
Definitely not alone! I was diagnosed with stage 3 Endo at age 18 after 9 years of so much pain. There are so many of us that spend years in pain before diagnosis. If you want to find more information about being your own advocate and different treatments I definitely suggest reading "The Doctor Will See You Now" by Dr. Seckin. Its very eye opening and doesnt make you feel alone 💛 welcome to the fight, endowarrior.
@@myrthasmascary4086 I have ibs as well. They referred me to a gynecologist, but I have been putting it off for years. I’m finally taking the leap as I’m worried that I might endometriosis or PCOS, maybe even both.
@@Ps-do2si I am sorry for the pain you are enduring, but if you remove all dairy products and foods that contains gluten it will help.Drinking water is very helpful, room temperature, stop drinking cold water.Drink water first thing in the morning then eatanorange or a banana. Drink water one hour before you eat and even before you shower and before you go to bed.
Me 2 changed my whole Life style😀 have since five years no pain anymore. Did all Things since age of 30. Was 25 five when i was dwaling with it after i stopper with the poll. But i have to watch my eggsquality now cause it has effect on it. Im 38 now.
Truth! I complained about my problems around age 12. I was in pain for years. By the time anyone took me seriously it was too late to save my uterus and ovaries. I had a hysterectomy at 35.
I agree. I believed a doctor who told me I needed to have surgery to remove my very large fibroid. I did the surgery, but now I have 4 fibroids. I've had two miscarriages since getting fibroids (I have two previous pregnancies). Thank you @tiamowryquickfix for sharing your story.
hlnl56 So true but people trust medical doctors with their lives, for the most part doctors no longer have our best interests at heart. I was complaining to my doctors since I was a teenager because my friends never had periods like I did. The doctors told me it’s normal and that I will basically grow out of it. I’m 30 now and at 28 it went from what I already thought was bad to unbearable, I had to take days off work for my period and get iron infusion from losing too much blood every month. At 29 the gynaecologist said that “ I most likely have endometriosis but the only to be diagnosed was with surgery” and offered me another birth control with progesterone 🤨. I was getting super dizzy and I even fainted on vacation from the intensity of the pain. I denied the surgery and went the natural route and months later I’m feeling so much better than I did even in my teenage years. 🤗🙏🏾
Unfortunately it’s too late for me. I had to have a partial hysterectomy and wasn’t able to have children. Thank you for putting this out here for other women. ❤️💪🏾
@@Some1sAuntie Of Course! I was just diagnosed with endometriosis on my right ovary. I have two cyst growth there . And I’m only 26 😞 Hoping for the best !
Hi. Hope and wish you recover soon and get healthy. I need to know if one can have a surgery at 4th stage of endometriosis without removing the entire uterus? My cousin, she is almost 40, and she is extremely upset for doctors have told her that she need to remove her uterus because her endometriosis is in 4th stage and any other medication or surgery is not helpful. Can you please find and tell if she still can ho under surgery without removal of uterus, and can have children. She is not getting pregnant and have no child yet
@@qaimkhan2549 My endometriosis is stage 4. I didn’t have my uterus removed. The doctor removed a significant amount and prescribe an IUD, Lupron Injections and Birth Control pills to slow the progression. Your cousin should seek a second opinion. Everyone one is different but I hope this helps.
Omg yes! I’ve struggled with endo for so many years and it keeps me in bed screaming and crying from the pain. I recently had a talk with an older friend who has been with endo for years and she also told me that sugar, dairy, and processed foods would make it worse so last month about a week before my cycle I cut out those things and my period was sooo much better. It’s crazy how food can really affect us.
That’s crazy because I did the exact same thing you did. Just to test it out I ate clean 1 week before my cycle and BOOM!, no more excruciating period cramps! It was so shocking. But it’s changing my life knowing how much meat and dairy can really cause so many interruptions in our bodies. Been vegan/vegetarian ever since! 😆
OMG RESPECT OTHERS HUMAN home food made scratch only cooking for me personally was nutrition eating. Fast food was awarded be generous by getting student with A report card.
Thanks for sharing.... I had 10 years of miscarriages and now the last 3-4 years not being able to "get" pregnant. I got diagnosed just last week with a blood clotting disorder and have a docs letter to get me onto fertility treatment. PCO, polops and fibroids 😔😖😫 A long wait of heart ache and loneliness BUT I'm on my way!!! Such a beautiful family you have 💚💚
Welcome back beautiful Tia, Thank you for sharing your journey with endometriosis. There are so many females that have this but are afraid to discuss it. Thank God for your friend Alicia referring you to this specialist. You are abundantly blessed with two beautiful children after having your surgeries . The change of diet is a must! Again thank you for sharing this.❤️🙏🏼
Tia! I have Endo and honestly it's been a journey and I've been slowly implanting changes in my diet and your book was the first one I bought to help me get started!!! Thank you so much!!!
I have both Endometriosis and PCOS too. It’s so annoying sometimes. Watching this video kind of made me teary as it’s so relatable. Thank you for making this video - I love hearing other ladies stories 💕
I love that Endometriosis is being being talked about! Especially by you! You are a sister warrior and I'm so happy that you have a beautiful family. I do want to point out that pregnancy DOES NOT cure or relieve Endometriosis, only suppress it. Every endometriosis case is different but its a big myth from doctors. Many still have the pain and stress about surgeries even after giving birth. My opinion is that it would be very hard to take care of a baby or kid when the mother continues to have debilitating pain. There are many myths out there and many doctors with different opinions with different solution to test on. Some work some don't. But one thing is true... there is NO CURE and NO real reason why endometriosis happens. I totally agree with the diet part since I've experiment it myself.. I get flares up with dairy, meat and alcohol. I think gluten too but I'm still not sure. I'm very interested in you cookbook!! Thank you Tia!!
Hi Tia, I have endometriosis from I was 27 and I am 46 this year, married for 18 years, we didn't get any children. I change how i eat but it didn't happen. The doctors say the old I get the harder, so I have to thank God my husband he gave me. Lately I am feeling some pain. But my God is a healer he can heal anything.
Look up iodine deficiency and endometriosis. Dr. David Brownstein and Dr. Jorge Flechas have done extensive research in iodine deficiency and what it does to the body. You would be surprised at what you find out. Also read "The Iodine Crisis" by Lynne Farrow.
Dear Lydia I'm very sorry about that..I was fortunate I was diagnosed of it @ the age of 14 I'm now 25 years the last time I went to see my gynaecologist I was told it's better now...The day I was told I had it I cried cux the doctor told me I might not give birth I prayed about it and thanks to God my doctor says I'm better now
@@sempfi22 I agree 100%...Thyroid function has alot to do w/ the reproductive sys...Iodine levels are very important for thyroid function, also for the entire body...Iodine is important for T3 & T4 convertion...Iodine solves lots of problems, please research it people...I learned the hard way...
I was diagnosed with endometriosis at age 27 after having terrible cramps since I was like 14 years old. So I was finally diagnosed at 27 and I was married 7 years at the time to my high school sweetheart. I was told my chances of having kids was really low. I became severely depressed with emotional and physical pain. I no longer felt like a woman and I just felt I was useless. My mother was diagnosed with breast cancer during that time as well so I was going thru a really tough time. Fast forward, I'm 37 now and I have allowed my fear and depression just stop me from further treatment and being the happy person I use to be. My husband and I are now seperated and alot of it was due to me just basically checking out on life. He left and now have a child with someone else. Today I feel alot of hurt and regret because now I have to go at this alone to get my problem fixed. I wish we could have worked thru it but I guess he's happy now. So ladies, if you are going thru Endometriosis, please go to the doctor and get it taken care of and please don't let it control your life. I just don't want no one else taking the route I did out of fear. I have a doctor's appointment coming up so please pray for me. Thanks and Good luck and Blessings to others battling this condition. 🙏💯💪
I’m so happy that you shared this!!!! I also got a second opinion with my endometriosis!! I’m so happy that I did! I didn’t have just terrible terrible periods it actually hurt during intercourse... I know that’s TMI but that was one of my main symptoms Thank you so much for sharing your story! I think I will make my own video!
jeralynne bazoff have you seen any improvement with the painful intercourse since being diagnosed? That’s been a symptom for me as well and I’m just curious!
@@soumodiptadey8660 Avoid gluen, milk and milk products, sugar, soy, caffine, soda drinks .... exercise 1 hour aday ,walking is very good. Castor oil pack google it. Try to drink home filtered water not plactic bottles try to avoid all plastic marteials they all contain a chemical called BPA the most dangerious chemical. If you can try to sleep 8 hours at night. I wish all the very best and may the lord heal all of us from head to toe
My mother had a long journey with her diagnosis as well. She was in extreme pain for YEARS, but was ignored and gaslit by her doctors. They accused her of being an opioid addict, even though she's never taken any of those overprescribed medications in her whole life. They made those spurious accusations just based off of the speculation of the previous ob/gyn who also didn't do his job. Until she advocated for herself to the point of tears in the waiting room and hallway (i.e., outside of the exam room) they hadn't even conducted a pap smear. Ignoring women in severe pain is, unfortunately, par for the course in healthcare. I believe the studies show that this exacerbated when that woman is non-White or has a lower socioeconomic status. My mother's actions got her in front of the director of gynecology who LISTENED to her, paired her with two excellent physicians in her unit, and censured the doctors who abused her instead of conducting a routine examination that would've helped to identify the cause of her pain. If you're being ignored and your health is at stake let EVERYONE know and don't give up on yourself.
Dr's are great at ignoring even with proof of test... because so many people do wrong by medication.. I have been fighting it for over 15 years.. when I got fibroid cysts the dr didn't do anything to help.. now the two fibroid tumors have grown together and is the size of my uterus.. drs try to make you feel like you are crazy because the pain ..
Thank you . Because your Mom story was mine . It took 20 years to be diagnosed, 20 years . I was accused of having phantom pain. By the time they conducted a hysterectomy...my ovaries were glued to my walls and twisted . I suffered out of my mind kind of pain.
I’m 22 years old and in a similar situation... I will keep fighting. This has been going on since I was 13 years old. I currently have endo, a massive 12cm ovarian cyst, and pelvic bleeding yet nobody will help me even though they have the results right in front of them. Thank you for the words of encouragement
Thank you for sharing your experience. I bought your cookbook 2 years ago and read your story there. You are absolutely right, food is medicine. Endometriosis, fibroids, PCOS and other issues are related to estrogen dominance based on what we consume, especially dairy since hormones are often injected into cows. I suffer from fibroids and once I started eating better and cut out alcohol (another culprit) it got better.
Hi Tia, thank you so much for sharing your story, you are a great inspiration to me. I also have endometriosis, been diagnosed about 5 years now. It gives me hope knowing that you were able to conceive twice with this disease. I'm about to get married and plan to start a family immediately after, I think your recipe book will significantly help me in this journey to conception. Where can I purchase it? I do not live in the US.
@@kimberleyfrancis6038 Hi darling! Thank you for the love and support ❤️ You can find my book on Amazon! amzn.to/2L8ceDy I hope it can help you on your journey 🙏🏾
Hi Tia, thank you so much for sharing your story. You are helping so many women. I am learning how important diet is. @Marci, it's interesting to read that your fibroids got better after eating better. I am suffering from fibroids myself and it seems that doctors and specialists have no solution for me. Non of them ever said anything about a healthy diet. They only talk about medicines. But I read from different women who suffer or suffered from fibroids that a diet has helped them. I am wondering if this cookbook has helped you in your journey with your fibroids.
I can’t begin to thank you for sharing your story. I was diagnosed with endometriosis a couple months ago and I have had mild depression due to the thought of one day not being able to get pregnant. Thank you for showing me that there is still hope to have beautiful babies even with our condition.
I was diagnosed with endometriosis on December 12th with blocked fallopian tubes I was very blessed to have a very small case of it and I just found out I'm pregnant I'm so happy to give birth to my first child in october.
I'm 28 yo and after 2 years of marriage i have diagnosed with endometriosis in my ovarium I'm so sad about that, my doctor said that i have to surgery and i want to have my own baby, thank you for sharing
*am filled with joy and happiness with my family today, because of fibroids my tubes was blocked for 5years after using Dr Omo herbal medicine I was able to shrinking my fibroid naturally, I just give birth to a boy🤱🏿last month here*❤️ Dr Omo herbal medicine work perfectly well he can also help you get rid of Endometriosis, Ovarian Cyst, Pcos..
I just found out that there are people that are paid to give negative reviews and paid to troll people. Then there are people who dont understand, you dont dislike the video because its sad! They are sad about the content, so they give it a thumbs down. I wish TH-cam would do something like Facebook and allow different reactions....there would be a lot less dislikes. And track people who dislike videos
And probably because she isn’t telling the complete story. I listened to her and watched closely while she talked about the baby she just had and it sounds like she probably conceived via IVF.
Teresa Everett women who are struggling with infertility issues need women like Tia to bring awareness to the struggle through her platform. Her being forthright about it would also give realistic expectations to women facing infertility issues due to endometriosis.
My aunt has endometriosis, I’m guessing i do 2. My periods are so painful & I can’t b intimate w/ my boyfriend cuz Intercourse is hurts. My vulva & stomach hurt, so I’m celibate. & I’d love 2 have this ai diet, but I don’t have the $. I work 2 jobs, but taxes get taken & I’ve got rent. Some $1.50 pizzas in the oven is affordable w/ that budget. But I’m going to the hospital to get the bottom of everything. I’m sick of the pain.
I’m 23 I’ve been to SEVERAL doctors. My menstrual is the worst part of my life, I usually go to the bathroom for hours and one day in school my teacher denied me going to the bathroom and I actually ended up having a seizure and urinating on myself and that’s when I’ve noticed ok this is obviously not normal. Every doctor, my family and friends never believed me and said I exaggerate until a friend actually watched me have a seizure I fell to the floor and cracked my tooth. Till this day no one knows what’s going on but my passing out, having seizures and throwing up only occurs on my menstrual. I truly 100000% believe I have endometriosis after doing extensive research but terrified of surgery. Thank you so much for speaking out because we’re all told to take a pill and lay down or just go on birth control
Hi i have endometriosis and had a surgery a few years ago and it has changed my life. The surgery is done via a laparoscopy (keyhole surgery) not a big incision whatsoever. During laparoscopy, the surgeon makes a small cut around 1cm to (0.4 inches), usually near your belly button. After the surgery you feel sore for a day or two, but not that much and once you have healed completely you will not see any scars at all. 🤗
Thank-you for raising awareness for this condition. Very painful cramps are not normal, no matter how much people try to normalize or downplay it. As Tia says if something feels wrong you owe it to yourself to investigate and get a second or even third opinion.
Thank for sharing Tia ... I'm 16year old girl who was diagnosed with endometriosis last year ... ii understand what you went through... 💔😢❤ ... You are my role model / my rock ❤
I have endometriosis for 17 years I’m miserable….I have an oversized ovarian tumor … did 1 surgery & it didn’t help … I’m so tired … I’m sooooo tired… I want another baby & I don’t want to remove my ovaries … I went vegan for 2 years but is expensive….I’m so tired of this 😢🥺
My daughter who is 24 is struggling with this as well. Same exact symptoms and not being able to conceive. 😔 Thank you so much for sharing this! I will def. pass this on to her❤
This is perfect timing. I go in Friday for an ultrasound. The thing that broke my heart most was the chance of infertility. I know I’m only 19, but I’ve always wanted to be a mama, and I want to do whatever I can to fix this. We will all be stronger because of it. Thank you so much, Tia.
When man say no God say YES!!! He only put you through that so you can be a living testament and help others that are going through the same thing. I struggled with fibroids and thought I wasn’t going to be able to have kids but God knows what he had in store for me and at age 36 he blessed me with my beautiful baby girl who is now 2 1/2 years old....the BEST gift in life!!!Continue with your healthy journey and blessings to you and your beautiful family always. 😘
Praise God sister 🙌 your testimony is encouraging me to keep believe that God can do the impossible, I have had irregular cycles since a teen and later found out I was diagnosed with PCOS, I'm believing God for my healing that I will soon have a child.
I wish I had been Educated on this. I wish a doctor had said I may have endometriosis. For me I was told I too far gone. I'll need a hysterectomy. I am so regretful.
So thankful for you making this video! I too was able to conceive my miracle son with Stage IV Endometriosis and being told I wouldn't be able to do it. We need more women sharing their stories, that is the only way we will truly find healing. It wasn't until I shared my endo story on my channel that I started to find a support system that helped me figure out my body. The only thing I would add is the right vitamins saved my life and relieved me of my pain!
Such a timely video. I got married last year and in the last 4 months I’ve been trying to get pregnant. This past Christmas I felt a swelling on my lower left side of my tummy that was cramping like crazy, went to the hospital , turns out I have ovarian cyst on both ovaries and endometriosis. About 7yrs ago and at least once a year I would have very bad period pain that would literally knock me out (fainting spells). At least I know why I had those terrible pains. I’m literally just coming home from having a blood test at the hospital, and they will be calling me in for surgery in the next few weeks. Thanks Tia for this video, I can start eating better to help myself and there’s hope xx
It’s crazy that your doc ignored your issues! I’m finding that so many doctors do that mine included. I was so concerned with my issues and my doc literally didn’t care. I had to help myself with a lot of research and trial and error with my own body. Crazy.
Far too often females are treated as though they are over reacting. I agree to listen to your body and keep searching until you find someone who will really listen and investigate. Your digestive system houses 70 to 80 percent of your immune system so yes, diet plays a very important role. This was informative and I enjoy your style of delivery.
@@TiaMowrysQuickFix hi tia endometriosis can cause bladder pain I had surgery sep 30 of endo doctor told I don’t have any endo but my bladder is hurting so badly
This is terrifying! I have the EXACT symptoms AND clots during my menstrual cycle. The OBGYN's that I went to always insisted that it was "normal" 🙄 - This video was super informative, Thanks Tia 💕, I'm sorry you had to go through this 🤗
Thank you Tia for sharing your experience. The cramps are from a place called hell, and unfortunately you just reminded me! Diet, and issues we grow up with are very, very important. I became a vegetarian, and eat a whole foods diet because of this, and some other reasons. (The hormones and the trauma the animals go through that we ingest and digest when we eat them are transferred to our own beings. Tia, and for anyone who is interested in deeper healing, here are some great resources to look into: - Queen Afua: She has books on female health issues, and healing. - Gary Null: Is the guru on any health issue you want to know about and is into natural healing. - Louise Hay: Her book, YOU CAN HEAL YOUR LIFE, is a great book that explains disease and healing on a metaphysical level. (RIP Ms. Hay!) - Dr. Jewel Pookrum: Specializes in female reproductive disorders (mostly uterine fibroids), and Ethno-Consciousness differences in the human race. Many, many Blessings!
I'm currently on my menstrual cycle and I just want to cry for you. 😭 It could be from the hormones haha But I completely agree that food intake is an absolute key to better life in general *And Jesus of course❤* But Thank you Tia so much for sharing your story! You are a warrior ❤

This made me feel like I wasn’t alone! I was diagnosed at the age of 18 and it was scary plus I was young! I found out a couple years ago that you had Endometriosis and I just thought to myself I would have never known that! Thank you for your story!
This is what it meant to be a woman. This shit we go through and the fact that people just brush it off and said “oh you are women get used to it” change your diet eat less red meat, eat lot veggies, less dairy and sugar and take vitamin (organic one). Stay away from process food.
I have to have my laproscopy in 2 weeks to remove endo and 2 cysts on my left ovary. Did they have to remove your ovary? Did they mention if it would help fertility?
@@backroads227 they didn't remove my ovary, and my doc said it should help out and that I'm "in my prime" for baby making after the surgery. So we'll see...
A couple of years ago.... I went to ER and found out I had uterine fibroids. It has been a long journey. But god is good! I became vegan 6 months ago! Thank you for sharing ur story Tia!
Thank you for sharing this video with us. It is so helpful. I currently have fibroids on both ovaries and cyst. I always had horrible cramps but, I just thought it was cramps growing up as a teen. As I got older I realized something is wrong. It can be very depressing. We as women go through so much. Some days I am good some days I am down. It’s a process. We are survivors! 💖🤧
From the age 13 - 21 I went to the doctor/hospital with severe pain and was always told ‘it’s just a heavy period, take paracetamol’ until I was diagnosed last year so I feel ya on the long diagnosis process x
Wow I had no idea she had endometriosis. I know it affects so many women , but no one talks about it! The pain - simply indescribable and unbearable. It is literally debilitating. Stay strong women are the STRONGEST on earth 💙
Preach sister! I was misdiagnosed for approx 14 months. After missing way too much work to be acceptable and being in the ER every week for severe pain, nausea, etc and being sent home with nothing but a huge bill and feeling like the doctors really were not listening to me I finally had an ER follow up with a general PCP who took one look at me and my records and said "I bet you have endometriosis". I said endo-what?. He wasn't a "specialist" but he was a blessing and a catalyst to have my first laparoscopy to get diagnosed properly. The OB who did my lap tried to schedule me out several weeks and this Dr called her and said he wanted me in surgery within the next 48 hours. Even that OB didn't want to acknowledge my pain or my symptoms. This was back in 2010-11. There is alot more exposure and awareness now . I think the hardest part was the isolation. Feeling alone because you don't "look sick" but you have to cancel plans last minute because you cant even get out of bed. Friends simply don't understand. If I had Cancer (God forbid) then I would get sympathy and understanding but since I have a disease no one understands unless they have it, then I just look flaky and unreliable. My job pressured me once I got FMLA and tried to punish me for calling in (which is illegal and if it happens to you document everything and contact your state Dept of Labor). I found solace being on IG and seeing how many women across the globe also struggle with this disease .. it's like a support system and sisterhood when you feel abandoned by friends and family. I was told I would never have kids and would keep needing maintenance surgeries. I have not had another surgery since 2011, however I am probably due. I was also informed about changing my diet and exercising in order to keep inflammation under control. I declined the Lupron due to the horror stories and side effects I heard. I took myself off hormonal birth control (which made me feel even worse) and just put my faith in my own instincts. I think each woman has to find out what works for her , regardless of what your doctor feels and also get several opinions. I went to approx 8 different Dr's and specialists and each one has their own method and opinion so it gets confusing. Listen to your OWN body just like Tia said. Sorry this is getting long. Best of luck to everyone struggling with invisible illness.
Hi I was diagnoses in 2016 after having what was believed to be an ectopic pregnancy . Fast foward, I had a surgery and changed my diet to non gluten . I now have 2 daughters . I will pray for you . It took me 8 months to get pregnant after my miscarriage.
Thank you for sharing this! I just found out I had endometriosis 3 years ago and I’ve been having these symptoms since I was 13. You have convinced me to change my diet, time to go buy your book!
Thank you so much for sharing. I wish I had gone for a second opinion but instead I chose to have a total hysterectomy 1994. Unfortunately I don't have any children but did manage to get pregnant in 1976 before I was diagnosed, but sadly I had a miscarriage.
I cried watching this because I’ve been dealing with irregularities since I was 16 and now I’m 35 and doctors NEVER say the word endometriosis and they should be ashamed…. I’m now turning to natural solutions to see if it helps because I’m DONE with these lying, undereducated doctors without confidence or concern
My mother had endomitosis And wasn't supposed to have kids But somehow she had me, I was a miracle baby. Women that have endomitosis usually never have kids/get pregnant and if it happens it's a miracle it's a blessing
I have endometriosis and lost an ovary beacuse i have ovarian cyst and had it removed and scar tissue and still no babis me and my husband been trying for 5 years
Same here! It was in the back of my mind growing up that she may have passed it down to me. And that i may not be able to have kids. Just got diagnosed at 20
“Women that have endometriosis usually never have kids..” girl what?! You must not do your research. Plenty of women with endometriosis have babies. It may be a little difficult, yes, but don’t get on here discouraging people. No offense.
I had this condition as a girl fifty years ago at the age of thirteen. The doctor perscribed birth control pills. The pain stopped immediately. When I married and wanted to have children I stoppéd taking the pills and the pains came back. After I gave birth the pains stopped completely.
I found out that I was diagnosed with endometriosis in March but I’m pretty sure I’ve had it for years! I am now urging myself to change my diet because I want to have kids with my husband like you Tia. I had surgery and my right ovary was removed, but my doctor said I can still have children and I’m keeping my faith! I need more advice because it’s a struggle to be in the unknown with endometriosis!
Tia, First and foremost, may God continue to BLESS you and your family. I would like to thank you for sharing your journey regarding conceiving with endometriosis. I, too, am struggling with endometriosis. I am 33 years old and is two weeks from my 34th birthday. I have really been struggling emotionally because I really want to have children. My first surgery was at the age of 31 and that’s when I was diagnosed with endometriosis. My doctor said if you get pregnant the symptoms will improve, however the struggle is getting pregnant. As I get older, I’m only human so the thought of conceiving is constantly on my mind but I also struggle with the fact that as you get older the more challenging it is to conceive. I have done cleanses, detox, everything you can think of I have done. Due to surgery as well as additional procedures my doctor, bills are putting a financial strain on my finances. In spite of my circumstances, I will continue to give all the Glory and Praises to GOD. He would never put too much on me that I can not bear. I will continue to hold on to the faith that We will Conceive and there will be resources in place to help those who can not afford medical procedures to assist with reproducing. I thank you again Tia for sharing your story and shedding light on this topic. God Bless You and Everyone viewing this video and those struggling with endometriosis. Respectfully, Tiarra Indiana
Hi Tiarra, It's possible! Don't give up hope... I am 34 and have a 15 month old. I conceived naturally after my doctor told me I would need another surgery to have a chance. You are doing the right thing by staying positive and giving thanks for where you are... Those seeds of thanksgiving will push you to where you need to be! Focus on getting and staying healthy and happy. It is going to happen!! With Love -- Endo Sis
I just got diagnosed with endometriosis. It is so painful. I eat gluten free and dairy free mostly because I discovered it made my family and me feel better. I am now focusing on doing 100% of the time just to heal and feel better. You are an inspiration to me. Thanks for your support ❤
When I get my period I don’t go to school or leave the house. It’s just too painful like nothing works NOTHING the day I got my period in 5th grade I was in hella pain and was shaking and scared. I am 17 now I have blood clots in my legs and thighs which is incredibly dangerous and rare for my age and the pain is EVERYWHERE like wtf
I just discovered your channel and I was hooked within a day! Your energy is infectious and I always end up smiling. However I also love that you keep it real. Thank you for telling us your story and bringing an awareness to this subject that is slowly becoming less taboo to talk about. So many women suffer in silence and live with endometriosis daily. It’s lovely to see you again Tia❤️❤️
Thanks for sharing Tia, undergoing surgery is never easy. I'm on my 5th doctor, 3rd surgery. I had an ectopic and lost one tube and my baby in 2013 and haven't been able to get pregnant again since. I have all the symptoms of endometriosis but the surgeries show no endometriosis. The first one showed alot of inflammation and the second one a pseudo cyst formed. I'm in pain physically, mentally and emotionally and it doesn't help when doctors can't give a straight answer. I would love to have a baby someday.
Are there any charities that help women get necessary excision surgery when they Can Not afford It on their own? I need to travel to CEC In Atlanta Georgia, for thoracic endo as no thoracic surgeons here will work with my current local endo specialist. My most debilitating symptoms actually started while I was on a low inflammatory diet and had been for 4 years. Unfortunately diet only helps some and for others It only helps for some time. ☹️
Sister Herbal medicine is the best to treat our body system naturally I I’ve been living with endometriosis 🤒😭 for more than 5years now but I got rid of it naturally after using dromo herbal medicine very good and active it help me fight over endometriosis naturally order 👉 youtube.com/@dromocure
It took my doctors 30 years before I collapsed at work and a locom doctor said straight away I think you have Endometriosis I cried with relief and told her I've been trying to tell my doctors for years that what I was experiencing wasn't normal and so painful. I was fainting alot from heavy periods and pain, I was being sick cramping over in the fetus position and chronic diarrhea. In the end they finally sent me for surgery for a laproscopy and removed it. But that was 5 years ago and the pain is back. I'm now trying to tell my doctors again repeatedly that this is Endometriosis but they said ibs then ibd then back to ibs again. Its so annoying that some doctors just don't listen and believe you know your body. I'm being sent for a blood test soon which I know is pointless as that doesn't diagnose this condition then there going to send me for internal probing to check my uterus yet that doesn't diagnose it either. I'm so frustrated I keep telling them they need to send me for a laproscopy instead of all this I've been through that already and I reckonise the pain. If I had the money to pay privately to get one done I would. I'm from the uk so all treatment is free unless we pay crazy money to go private. Honestly thank you so much for sharing your story maybe I should share it with my doctors as so many of us women we know our bodies and we know when it's not normal. I know this is Endometriosis again and I can't wait for them to sort me out it's debilitating.
Tia I appreciate you so much for sharing your story about having endometriosis. Like you, I experienced the worst cramps of my life in my early to late 20's I had days that I would ball up in a fetal position on the floor and just cry out in pain. I didn't know why I was suddenly experiencing so damn much menstrual pain whereas no pain meds seems to help. I was literally losing my sanity over it and was dreading every single months that came when it was that time. Like you, I went to my doctor, only to be told the exact same things your doctor told you and none of it worked. I wish I had known to go to a specialist. When I got married and we decided to start a family, that's when I found out not only that I had endometriosis, but that my tubes were far too damaged for me to have any kids because of the years I suffered with it and had nothing done about it. It's been 20 yrs now and I'm still emotionally hurt to this day that I couldn't have any kids for me and my husband to enjoy. I don't really get over it, I just learn to deal with it. I wish someone had told me about seeing a specialist. I figured since my doctor never mentioned it, it was no need to take it further than the things she told me to do. Some doctor huh? I'm blessed to have a wonderful sincere understanding husband who stuck by me through thick n thin, the high ups and low downs. You are blessed Tia and I'm so happy that you were able to have 2 beautiful children. You are an inspiration, I love your truth and honesty. Keep sharing girly. Much love to you ❤💕🌺 🤗
lexdee523 sorry, to hear. Have you tried changing your diet? My husband aren’t trying to have babies right now so I don’t know if there’s any issues with my uterus or now. But I have had horrible cycles for years. I would be so nauseated that I could barely stand. I would be cramping so badly that I would be balled up in fetal position crying and found myself missing school often. I would vomit because the pain was so intense. Once I stopped eating most fast food and frozen foods (other than chick Fil a now and then) and eating mostly cooked food (like grass fed meat, lots of vegetables, fruit, beans, nuts, rice here and there, smoothies with chia seeds) I saw a HUGE difference. The only symptoms I still experience is heavy bleeding and light cramps. My cramps are WAY better than they used to be and sometimes they not last for 1 day. I take blackstrap molasses before and during my cycle and it really does take the cramps away. I would encourage you to change your diet and look into natural remedies like blackstrap molasses.
@@IAmHisBeloved5 Thank you so kindly for your reply. As I had mentioned in my comment, it's been 20+ years now and my tubes were already damaged to the point of not being able to have kids by the time I got married. I know a lot more about it today than I did 20 something years ago. Seems my doctor didn't have much thorough knowledge about it herself to even tell me about diet changing which back then I wasn't into a lot of fast foods or fried foods too much, or to even recommend seeing a specialist about it. I'm more educated about it now so when I hear of someone I know that may be trying to have kids but are experiencing the same symptoms as I had, I come with recommendations that may help. Happy to say, because of my suggestions in cases such as this, a couple of my friends did seek out further help (through a specialist that is) and now have kids of their own. It still makes me sad that I wasn't able to enjoy the experience of motherhood but I'm happy for others I've helped who were able to. I'm in a good place in my life now. Outside of not being able to conceive, I have no regrets. But I do strongly encourage women to research and educate themselves and seek out further help if ever they find themselves in the same situation. I do wish you (and your husband) the best when the time comes that you two do decide to have kids. I would also like to add if I may. If you have any concerns about your tubes or uterus, you can make an appointment with your doctor to discuss having tests done to determine if everything is ok in those areas in the event that you choose to have kids down that road. Good luck to you.
I was on surgery grade pain meds for years tryna mask the pain only to become addicted not once did they consider looking into this severe pain I had to b my own doctor 🥼 😢 ty for sharing your story you will help others ask the doctors the right questions & demand solutions/answers
That's crazy but it sounds like what is typically heard. A lot of doctors just treat the symptoms instead of finding the cause. It keeps you sick and a residual money flow for them. When I see my doctor, I always ask a lot of questions and he's always open to sending me to see another doctor or a specialist if necessary. Doctors think they know it all but they aren't inside you and can't feel what you're feeling. I hope you've found a better doctor and treatment.
Sausha Kamara u r so right doctors think they kno it all when they just sitting at a computer guessin typing stuff into a doctor version of google all is well now I changed my diet & I don’t have horrible pain anymore or don’t require meds but I do still need to get to a specialist kinda scared lost a lot of faith in doctors
Thank you for sharing. My had cystic fibrosis. & I have really bad period cramps & nausea. Sometimes I’ll be throwing up for 24 to almost 48 hours on my periods. I miscarried at 18. & mom struggled to have me & my sister. & I have other infertility issues in my family. I’ve not be diagnosed with anything yet. Because sometimes there is a fear of knowing because we’ve siked ourselves out into believing that maybe there isn’t hope on the other side but thank you for sharing your story. I need this. 🙏🏾💕
Multi-vitamins!!!!! Endometriosis is horrible. I've been diagnosed as well. Today I was having the most horrible pains ever almost unbearable laboring pains. I am not a person that like to take pain killers or any pills. I am sitting there in massive pain and I looked to my dresser and set eyes on a bottle of Multi vitamins since. I am anemic and my cycles are heavy I said what the hey. I didn't take these vitamins in weeks and guess what? Immediate relief I couldn't believe it. I was hanging off my bed 5 min prior to not feeling anything. On top of that my period lightened up. If you can Please try so we can make a healthy observation.
Thank you! My doctor tried brushing off my symptoms. Even after experiencing menorrhagia after a mmc. I was told my bleeding was normal even after coming to the ER with my shoes filled with blood. Working on getting a better Dr to hopefully find out whats wrong. But I know it’s not normal.
Avigayil jasmíne brown I had been going to the same Dr. for years and they kept brushing my symptoms off. I did research and found Dr. Paul MacKoul at innovativegyn.com/ They are great!
No doctor has mentioned the eating habits to me. Before I had my surgery, much of my eating habits had already changed for the better. So far, I don't think it's come back. However, I don't eat many processed foods, I don't have crazy amounts of sugar... I might need to be more conscious about laying off the dairy. I'm also big on antiinflammatory foods/teas/spices for other reasons. So maybe I've been unintentional making good endo choices, along with good lifestyle choices
Endometriosis, PCOS (🙋), Ovarian Cancer, etc...All of these diseases are things that plague women, but are rarely talked about. Thanks for taking the time share your story.
These are all hormone related.
Endometriosis and fibroids are caused by high estrogen.
PCOS is caused by low progestrone and estrogen.
I have been dealing with half diagnosed endometriosis and breast lumps for years but I decided to heal my best naturally and with herbs. My diet Is all the way different and I supplement with herbs to boost immunity and stabilize my hormones.
@@campbecy They're not all hormone related, endometriosis is mainly due to a genetic mutation which affects development of the female reproductive organs and the cause of PCOS is for the most part unknown (however the symptoms occur due to higher male hormones in the body). For PCOS one treatment I've seen help is losing weight and taking tablets prescribed by the doctor to help regulate the hormones, it helps to regulate the periods a bit more and helps with the other symptoms
Fed up what tablets have your dr prescribed ? Birth control? I have Pcos and wondering ? And what kind of diet have you found works for you?
Fed up I think you guys need to do a lot more research. In theory the cause of endometriosis is unknown but it Is strongly linked to estrogen dominance. To my knowledge no one in my family has uterine endometriosis however, I started getting symptoms and all of sudden I had all the signs of endometriosis. I was not fully diagnosed because I denied the surgery and decided to go the natural route and Tia talked about it in her book. I went on a no sugar, no diary, gluten and meat diet and I will seldom have eggs, fish or chicken like every few months. During the journey I found out that endometriosis is also linked to parasites which causes the inflammation. I’ve done parasite cleanses and I have actually seen tons of eggs and parasites. I have been on a protocol to balance my estrogen and progesterone since last summer because my doctor had me on birth control before. The first few months after birth control were brutal but now my periods are regular, 50% less bleeding and wayyyy less painful. 🤗 I forgot to add that I have do not eat high estrogenic foods other than meat like most beans and soy. When I was younger I thought painful cramps and heavy bleeding were normal and would go home from high school to curl up in a ball.
The reason why Pcos becomes more under control after dieting is because they are mostly over weight and eat whatever they want. The liver becomes over worked and doesn’t process the hormones well. Read Tia’s book or just research journals on internal inflammation and its link to hormone imbalance.
Te'ylor Beck Do not Take what the doctor prescribes, they’re just bandages for what will be a long term alignment. Someone I work with actually changed her diet but she wasn’t super over weight and she conceived within a few few months. She said she will be eating healthier in general going forward so it doesn’t affect her again in the future. You can also look into calcium d glucarate and DIM. You also need more estrogenic healthy foods like beens fruits and veggies, try for a minimum of 3 months and see how it goes for you. Cheers!
“Take a bath” 🙄🙄 doctors get on my nerves. 😖
#FACTS I swear I got some of the craziest responses from doctors for years before finding a specialities that took my pain seriously.
Wow! I can only imagine! What did U find that helped?
@@TEWMUCH honestly, the only thing that has truly helped has been the right vitamin combination. I recently shared on my channel. It took me years to finds the right combination.
Right! Yes ma’am! I’ve recently been focusing my attention to Takin care of my nutrient deficiencies as well.! I’m hoping that’ll help me accomplish some of my health goals. I’ve experienced with things like veganism and whole food plant based. And I don’t think I did it right cuz I was lackin nutrients and always felt deprived and hungry.
Wheat is also bad for you. If you stop with that a lot changes
I struggle with it. I feared for years that it would prevent me from becoming pregnant. I'm expecting my first son in two weeks:)
Thank you for sharing.
Brianda Pondexter congratulations! Did you have to seek fertility help ?
@@nataliashafaye2741 Thank you! I didn't. I wasn't even trying. It just happened and I'm so grateful.
Brianda Pondexter Wishing you a safe delivery. Blessings xo
How old are you? If you don’t mind me asking
@@TheGorgeousfemme Not at all. I'm 27.
I had endometriosis at 17 and PCOS at 19. I'm now 25 with baby number 3 on the way! Thank you for sharing your story. These are very real conditions and should not be ignored.
Krista Smith did you have to change your diet to lose weight or did you take something to get pregnant . I have PCOS I changed my diet and lost a lot of weight but still haven’t got my period yet
I had surgery at 17 and at 19 and I would drink lots of teas and eat foods that would keep it at bay. I did lose weight but all 3 times I got pregnant I wasn't really trying and I was also on a birth control pill to help keep my cycle regular. Hope this helps!
please help me i have being suffering from this disease bthat is almost costin my life
@@joelkamau1411 you have to change your diet drastically. This helps in any illness... Do research on juicing, raw veggies meals and what food to avoid such as Dairy, sugar, sodas and juice, processed food like canned, frozen, red meat and have occasional organic chicken or beef. Bone Broth is good. fermented foods.... Dont give up. ask God for help and healing anf guidance too
Thats awesome God bless TC
I have endometriosis. I was diagnosed last year and undergone surgery last year as well. my ob removed my left ovary and fallopian tube and she told me i only had 50% chance of being pregnant. but hey, 4 months later, im pregnant.. yassssss
God is faithful, thank you Tia for sharing your experience.
Faith Shaya Amen

I’m 18 and I was diagnosed last week with endometriosis. I feel a lot less alone knowing I’m not alone.
Courtney Reynolds honey you aren’t alone. I was diagnosed 3 yrs ago and had my 2nd surgery last week and I love this video have to change diets. Take care of yourself
Not sure how is best but contact me. I was diagnosed at 18 started at 15 and now am 32. I was alone, no one I knew understood or even got what a bad period was etc. Xxx
Mine im.bleeding for.month
Soo.scared
Definitely not alone! I was diagnosed with stage 3 Endo at age 18 after 9 years of so much pain. There are so many of us that spend years in pain before diagnosis. If you want to find more information about being your own advocate and different treatments I definitely suggest reading "The Doctor Will See You Now" by Dr. Seckin. Its very eye opening and doesnt make you feel alone 💛 welcome to the fight, endowarrior.
You're not alone..I too am dealing with it for 7yrs
You have two beautiful children 😍 telling your story just shows that you have endometriosis, but endometriosis doesn't have you! Welcome back Tia ❤

Awesome comment! That's why I decided to share my story as well.
My Grandmother always said, "get a 2nd, 3rd, 4TH opinion, if u have to!!"
I know how u feel I have ibs c and I get excruciating pain and no Dr help
Yep! I had to go through 4 doctors to FINALLY get surgery to be diagnosed.
Wise words if ever I heard them. :)
Yep, It was my 3rd opinion doctor who gave me the real and ended my suffering. Smh
@@myrthasmascary4086 I have ibs as well. They referred me to a gynecologist, but I have been putting it off for years. I’m finally taking the leap as I’m worried that I might endometriosis or PCOS, maybe even both.
I also suffer from Endometriosis. We will find a cure someday. We can kick Endometriosis out the door for good. I love you Tia ❤️❤️❤️
Your food is your medicine.Changeyour diet.doresearch and see what works for you.
You still have pain? I was also endometriose patient
@@Ps-do2si I am sorry for the pain you are enduring, but if you remove all dairy products and foods that contains gluten it will help.Drinking water is very helpful, room temperature, stop drinking cold water.Drink water first thing in the morning then eatanorange or a banana. Drink water one hour before you eat and even before you shower and before you go to bed.
Me 2 changed my whole Life style😀 have since five years no pain anymore. Did all Things since age of 30. Was 25 five when i was dwaling with it after i stopper with the poll. But i have to watch my eggsquality now cause it has effect on it. Im 38 now.
I am with you!! I hope a cure is found soon, too!!
Just a disclaimer: Don’t blindly follows doctor’s orders. You may want to get a few opinions and then make a decision.
Facts
💯
Truth! I complained about my problems around age 12. I was in pain for years. By the time anyone took me seriously it was too late to save my uterus and ovaries. I had a hysterectomy at 35.
I agree. I believed a doctor who told me I needed to have surgery to remove my very large fibroid. I did the surgery, but now I have 4 fibroids. I've had two miscarriages since getting fibroids (I have two previous pregnancies). Thank you @tiamowryquickfix for sharing your story.
hlnl56 So true but people trust medical doctors with their lives, for the most part doctors no longer have our best interests at heart. I was complaining to my doctors since I was a teenager because my friends never had periods like I did. The doctors told me it’s normal and that I will basically grow out of it. I’m 30 now and at 28 it went from what I already thought was bad to unbearable, I had to take days off work for my period and get iron infusion from losing too much blood every month. At 29 the gynaecologist said that “ I most likely have endometriosis but the only to be diagnosed was with surgery” and offered me another birth control with progesterone 🤨. I was getting super dizzy and I even fainted on vacation from the intensity of the pain. I denied the surgery and went the natural route and months later I’m feeling so much better than I did even in my teenage years. 🤗🙏🏾
omg Tia Mowry you’re are so cute...I love your energy my sis...this video is full of video nd very real ...respect sis
You truly are so beautiful and so amazing.
Unfortunately it’s too late for me. I had to have a partial hysterectomy and wasn’t able to have children. Thank you for putting this out here for other women. ❤️💪🏾
stay strong.u dont need to give a birth to be a mother.just share yr love with someone else and adapt a baby.
So sorry❤️

I was just diagnosed with endometriosis on my right ovary. I have two cyst growth there . And I’m only 26 😞
Hoping for the best !
I’m currently recovering from my first surgery and this video made me feel so much lighter and encouraged. Thank you so much ❤️
Hi.
Hope and wish you recover soon and get healthy.
I need to know if one can have a surgery at 4th stage of endometriosis without removing the entire uterus?
My cousin, she is almost 40, and she is extremely upset for doctors have told her that she need to remove her uterus because her endometriosis is in 4th stage and any other medication or surgery is not helpful. Can you please find and tell if she still can ho under surgery without removal of uterus, and can have children. She is not getting pregnant and have no child yet
@@qaimkhan2549 My endometriosis is stage 4. I didn’t have my uterus removed. The doctor removed a significant amount and prescribe an IUD, Lupron Injections and Birth Control pills to slow the progression. Your cousin should seek a second opinion. Everyone one is different but I hope this helps.
Omg yes! I’ve struggled with endo for so many years and it keeps me in bed screaming and crying from the pain. I recently had a talk with an older friend who has been with endo for years and she also told me that sugar, dairy, and processed foods would make it worse so last month about a week before my cycle I cut out those things and my period was sooo much better. It’s crazy how food can really affect us.
Autumn LaShay I’m gonna have to try that.
That’s crazy because I did the exact same thing you did. Just to test it out I ate clean 1 week before my cycle and BOOM!, no more excruciating period cramps! It was so shocking. But it’s changing
my life knowing how much meat and dairy can really cause so many interruptions in our bodies. Been vegan/vegetarian ever since! 😆
@@latinaylove8323 dairy and chocolate are the worst for me
I'm glad those things helped you. Adding in more calories, more whole good carbs, and raw dairy (Weston A Price) and it has helped mine a lot
OMG RESPECT OTHERS HUMAN home food made scratch only cooking for me personally was nutrition eating. Fast food was awarded be generous by getting student with A report card.
Thanks for sharing.... I had 10 years of miscarriages and now the last 3-4 years not being able to "get" pregnant. I got diagnosed just last week with a blood clotting disorder and have a docs letter to get me onto fertility treatment.

Welcome back beautiful Tia,
Thank you for sharing your journey with endometriosis.
There are so many females that have this but are afraid to discuss it.
Thank God for your friend Alicia referring you to this specialist.
You are abundantly blessed with two beautiful children after having your surgeries .
The change of diet is a must!
Again thank you for sharing this.❤️🙏🏼
Hi tia how are I always watch your show an I ave learn alot my name is kerry
Tia! I have Endo and honestly it's been a journey and I've been slowly implanting changes in my diet and your book was the first one I bought to help me get started!!! Thank you so much!!!
Thank you do much for sharing
I have both Endometriosis and PCOS too. It’s so annoying sometimes. Watching this video kind of made me teary as it’s so relatable. Thank you for making this video - I love hearing other ladies stories 💕
I have endometriosis and pcos and fibroids and ppl still think its all in my head
I have
No baby
I love that Endometriosis is being being talked about! Especially by you! You are a sister warrior and I'm so happy that you have a beautiful family.
I do want to point out that pregnancy DOES NOT cure or relieve Endometriosis, only suppress it. Every endometriosis case is different but its a big myth from doctors. Many still have the pain and stress about surgeries even after giving birth. My opinion is that it would be very hard to take care of a baby or kid when the mother continues to have debilitating pain. There are many myths out there and many doctors with different opinions with different solution to test on. Some work some don't. But one thing is true... there is NO CURE and NO real reason why endometriosis happens.
I totally agree with the diet part since I've experiment it myself.. I get flares up with dairy, meat and alcohol. I think gluten too but I'm still not sure.
I'm very interested in you cookbook!! Thank you Tia!!
FIRST!!! WELCOME BACK TIA MOWRY-HARDRICT!!!
Hi Tia, I have endometriosis from I was 27 and I am 46 this year, married for 18 years, we didn't get any children. I change how i eat but it didn't happen. The doctors say the old I get the harder, so I have to thank God my husband he gave me. Lately I am feeling some pain. But my God is a healer he can heal anything.
Lydia Hutchinson
Look up iodine deficiency and endometriosis. Dr. David Brownstein and Dr. Jorge Flechas have done extensive research in iodine deficiency and what it does to the body. You would be surprised at what you find out. Also read "The Iodine Crisis" by Lynne Farrow.
Do you still cramp bad?
Dear Lydia I'm very sorry about that..I was fortunate I was diagnosed of it @ the age of 14 I'm now 25 years the last time I went to see my gynaecologist I was told it's better now...The day I was told I had it I cried cux the doctor told me I might not give birth I prayed about it and thanks to God my doctor says I'm better now
@@sempfi22 I agree 100%...Thyroid function has alot to do w/ the reproductive sys...Iodine levels are very important for thyroid function, also for the entire body...Iodine is important for T3 & T4 convertion...Iodine solves lots of problems, please research it people...I learned the hard way...
I was diagnosed with endometriosis at age 27 after having terrible cramps since I was like 14 years old. So I was finally diagnosed at 27 and I was married 7 years at the time to my high school sweetheart. I was told my chances of having kids was really low. I became severely depressed with emotional and physical pain. I no longer felt like a woman and I just felt I was useless. My mother was diagnosed with breast cancer during that time as well so I was going thru a really tough time. Fast forward, I'm 37 now and I have allowed my fear and depression just stop me from further treatment and being the happy person I use to be. My husband and I are now seperated and alot of it was due to me just basically checking out on life. He left and now have a child with someone else. Today I feel alot of hurt and regret because now I have to go at this alone to get my problem fixed. I wish we could have worked thru it but I guess he's happy now. So ladies, if you are going thru Endometriosis, please go to the doctor and get it taken care of and please don't let it control your life. I just don't want no one else taking the route I did out of fear. I have a doctor's appointment coming up so please pray for me. Thanks and Good luck and Blessings to others battling this condition. 🙏💯💪
I really appreciate this. The fear of treatment for Endometriosis is taking over my relationship and life. I really needed your advise. Thank you.
I’m praying for you. You are healed in Jesus’ name.
I hope this worked out for you. 🤍🤍🤍

How were you diagnosed? My doctor told me there was no way to know besides surgery? I think I have it
My doctor just discovered I have endometriosis after 2yrs marriage and unable to conceive and I pray after my surgery I should have my own baby

I’m so happy that you shared this!!!! I also got a second opinion with my endometriosis!! I’m so happy that I did! I didn’t have just terrible terrible periods it actually hurt during intercourse... I know that’s TMI but that was one of my main symptoms
Thank you so much for sharing your story! I think I will make my own video!
jeralynne bazoff have you seen any improvement with the painful intercourse since being diagnosed? That’s been a symptom for me as well and I’m just curious!
How can you improve your painful intercourse..???want to know

My mother had a long journey with her diagnosis as well. She was in extreme pain for YEARS, but was ignored and gaslit by her doctors. They accused her of being an opioid addict, even though she's never taken any of those overprescribed medications in her whole life. They made those spurious accusations just based off of the speculation of the previous ob/gyn who also didn't do his job. Until she advocated for herself to the point of tears in the waiting room and hallway (i.e., outside of the exam room) they hadn't even conducted a pap smear.
Ignoring women in severe pain is, unfortunately, par for the course in healthcare. I believe the studies show that this exacerbated when that woman is non-White or has a lower socioeconomic status. My mother's actions got her in front of the director of gynecology who LISTENED to her, paired her with two excellent physicians in her unit, and censured the doctors who abused her instead of conducting a routine examination that would've helped to identify the cause of her pain.
If you're being ignored and your health is at stake let EVERYONE know and don't give up on yourself.
Dr's are great at ignoring even with proof of test... because so many people do wrong by medication.. I have been fighting it for over 15 years.. when I got fibroid cysts the dr didn't do anything to help.. now the two fibroid tumors have grown together and is the size of my uterus.. drs try to make you feel like you are crazy because the pain ..
Wow God bless your mom!!!! Thank you for sharing this incredible story of strength & bravery! It's SOO true about our healthcare system :( smh
These same people will diagnose you with stage FOUR cancer after ignoring you
Thank you . Because your Mom story was mine . It took 20 years to be diagnosed, 20 years . I was accused of having phantom pain. By the time they conducted a hysterectomy...my ovaries were glued to my walls and twisted . I suffered out of my mind kind of pain.
I’m 22 years old and in a similar situation... I will keep fighting. This has been going on since I was 13 years old. I currently have endo, a massive 12cm ovarian cyst, and pelvic bleeding yet nobody will help me even though they have the results right in front of them. Thank you for the words of encouragement
Thank you for sharing your experience. I bought your cookbook 2 years ago and read your story there. You are absolutely right, food is medicine. Endometriosis, fibroids, PCOS and other issues are related to estrogen dominance based on what we consume, especially dairy since hormones are often injected into cows. I suffer from fibroids and once I started eating better and cut out alcohol (another culprit) it got better.
Diet is everything!!
Hi Tia, thank you so much for sharing your story, you are a great inspiration to me. I also have endometriosis, been diagnosed about 5 years now. It gives me hope knowing that you were able to conceive twice with this disease. I'm about to get married and plan to start a family immediately after, I think your recipe book will significantly help me in this journey to conception. Where can I purchase it? I do not live in the US.
@@kimberleyfrancis6038 Hi darling! Thank you for the love and support ❤️ You can find my book on Amazon! amzn.to/2L8ceDy I hope it can help you on your journey 🙏🏾
Hi Tia, thank you so much for sharing your story. You are helping so many women. I am learning how important diet is.
@Marci, it's interesting to read that your fibroids got better after eating better. I am suffering from fibroids myself and it seems that doctors and specialists have no solution for me. Non of them ever said anything about a healthy diet. They only talk about medicines. But I read from different women who suffer or suffered from fibroids that a diet has helped them.
I am wondering if this cookbook has helped you in your journey with your fibroids.
This has helped tremendously. I’ve recently been diagnosed with Endometriosis and waiting to have treatment. Tysm for sharing:)
I can’t begin to thank you for sharing your story. I was diagnosed with endometriosis a couple months ago and I have had mild depression due to the thought of one day not being able to get pregnant. Thank you for showing me that there is still hope to have beautiful babies even with our condition.
I was diagnosed with endometriosis on December 12th with blocked fallopian tubes I was very blessed to have a very small case of it and I just found out I'm pregnant I'm so happy to give birth to my first child in october.
I'm 28 yo and after 2 years of marriage i have diagnosed with endometriosis in my ovarium
I'm so sad about that, my doctor said that i have to surgery and i want to have my own baby, thank you for sharing
*am filled with joy and happiness with my family today, because of fibroids my tubes was blocked for 5years after using Dr Omo herbal medicine I was able to shrinking my fibroid naturally, I just give birth to a boy🤱🏿last month here*❤️ Dr Omo herbal medicine work perfectly well he can also help you get rid of Endometriosis, Ovarian Cyst, Pcos..
U have two healthy kids that’s blessings from God a miracle, this issue needs to B talk about us women-go though a lot in life changes.
24 dislikes 🙄🤔why smh 🤦🏽♀️ Thanks 🙏🏾Tia ❤️
I just found out that there are people that are paid to give negative reviews and paid to troll people.
Then there are people who dont understand, you dont dislike the video because its sad! They are sad about the content, so they give it a thumbs down. I wish TH-cam would do something like Facebook and allow different reactions....there would be a lot less dislikes. And track people who dislike videos
Probably because this kind of turned into an infomercial midway through.
And probably because she isn’t telling the complete story. I listened to her and watched closely while she talked about the baby she just had and it sounds like she probably conceived via IVF.
@@Rom_818 whats to dislike about that?
Teresa Everett women who are struggling with infertility issues need women like Tia to bring awareness to the struggle through her platform. Her being forthright about it would also give realistic expectations to women facing infertility issues due to endometriosis.
You look beautiful today Tia and welcome back😍😍😍😘😗😙😚😇🤗
i am definitely dealing with endometriosis and i have ever since i was in high school. changing your diet is a must!
My aunt has endometriosis, I’m guessing i do 2. My periods are so painful & I can’t b intimate w/ my boyfriend cuz Intercourse is hurts. My vulva & stomach hurt, so I’m celibate. & I’d love 2 have this ai diet, but I don’t have the $. I work 2 jobs, but taxes get taken & I’ve got rent. Some $1.50 pizzas in the oven is affordable w/ that budget. But I’m going to the hospital to get the bottom of everything. I’m sick of the pain.
I’m 23 I’ve been to SEVERAL doctors. My menstrual is the worst part of my life, I usually go to the bathroom for hours and one day in school my teacher denied me going to the bathroom and I actually ended up having a seizure and urinating on myself and that’s when I’ve noticed ok this is obviously not normal. Every doctor, my family and friends never believed me and said I exaggerate until a friend actually watched me have a seizure I fell to the floor and cracked my tooth. Till this day no one knows what’s going on but my passing out, having seizures and throwing up only occurs on my menstrual. I truly 100000% believe I have endometriosis after doing extensive research but terrified of surgery. Thank you so much for speaking out because we’re all told to take a pill and lay down or just go on birth control
Hi i have endometriosis and had a surgery a few years ago and it has changed my life. The surgery is done via a laparoscopy (keyhole surgery) not a big incision whatsoever. During laparoscopy, the surgeon makes a small cut around 1cm to (0.4 inches), usually near your belly button. After the surgery you feel sore for a day or two, but not that much and once you have healed completely you will not see any scars at all. 🤗

Thanks for sharing! I have these symptoms(vomiting, painful unbearable menstruations, dizzy) I’m so scared I have my ultrasound in 2 weeks 🙏🏾❤️
Thank-you for raising awareness for this condition. Very painful cramps are not normal, no matter how much people try to normalize or downplay it. As Tia says if something feels wrong you owe it to yourself to investigate and get a second or even third opinion.
Totally agree!
Exactly! Multiple opinions and we must continue to seek knowledge, get to know our bodies.
Thank for sharing Tia ... I'm 16year old girl who was diagnosed with endometriosis last year ... ii understand what you went through... 💔😢❤ ... You are my role model / my rock ❤
I have endometriosis for 17 years I’m miserable….I have an oversized ovarian tumor … did 1 surgery & it didn’t help … I’m so tired … I’m sooooo tired… I want another baby & I don’t want to remove my ovaries … I went vegan for 2 years but is expensive….I’m so tired of this 😢🥺
Trust me I feel your pain....I'm soooooo tired rn😢
Its awful because women who have endo and dont want kids suffer even more from lack of diagnosis. Women deserve care whether or not we have kids!
You’re so strong for this! and your babies are beautiful 🤗♥️

My daughter who is 24 is struggling with this as well. Same exact symptoms and not being able to conceive. 😔 Thank you so much for sharing this! I will def. pass this on to her❤
This is perfect timing. I go in Friday for an ultrasound. The thing that broke my heart most was the chance of infertility. I know I’m only 19, but I’ve always wanted to be a mama, and I want to do whatever I can to fix this. We will all be stronger because of it. Thank you so much, Tia.
Hey Tia welcome back, Thank you so much for sharing your story I pray God continues to bless you and your beautiful family
When man say no God say YES!!! He only put you through that so you can be a living testament and help others that are going through the same thing. I struggled with fibroids and thought I wasn’t going to be able to have kids but God knows what he had in store for me and at age 36 he blessed me with my beautiful baby girl who is now 2 1/2 years old....the BEST gift in life!!!Continue with your healthy journey and blessings to you and your beautiful family always. 😘
Praise God sister 🙌 your testimony is encouraging me to keep believe that God can do the impossible, I have had irregular cycles since a teen and later found out I was diagnosed with PCOS, I'm believing God for my healing that I will soon have a child.
Amen and Amen! well said Blessing to you and your family!
I wish I had been Educated on this. I wish a doctor had said I may have endometriosis. For me I was told I too far gone. I'll need a hysterectomy. I am so regretful.
So thankful for you making this video! I too was able to conceive my miracle son with Stage IV Endometriosis and being told I wouldn't be able to do it. We need more women sharing their stories, that is the only way we will truly find healing. It wasn't until I shared my endo story on my channel that I started to find a support system that helped me figure out my body. The only thing I would add is the right vitamins saved my life and relieved me of my pain!
Songood to hear that .
How did you convince with 4th stage of endometriosis? I need to know please
Such a timely video. I got married last year and in the last 4 months I’ve been trying to get pregnant. This past Christmas I felt a swelling on my lower left side of my tummy that was cramping like crazy, went to the hospital , turns out I have ovarian cyst on both ovaries and endometriosis. About 7yrs ago and at least once a year I would have very bad period pain that would literally knock me out (fainting spells). At least I know why I had those terrible pains. I’m literally just coming home from having a blood test at the hospital, and they will be calling me in for surgery in the next few weeks.
Thanks Tia for this video, I can start eating better to help myself and there’s hope xx
Hope your surgery went well.
It’s crazy that your doc ignored your issues! I’m finding that so many doctors do that mine included. I was so concerned with my issues and my doc literally didn’t care. I had to help myself with a lot of research and trial and error with my own body. Crazy.
The doctor ignored mines for 30yrs
Far too often females are treated as though they are over reacting. I agree to listen to your body and keep searching until you find someone who will really listen and investigate. Your digestive system houses 70 to 80 percent of your immune system so yes, diet plays a very important role. This was informative and I enjoy your style of delivery.
Very true! Listen to your body and trust yourself 🙌🏾

@@shondaab306 Thank you so much! I plan on seeing another doctor!! Do you feel any better now? 🌼
Welcome to the beginning of your journey. If you are after info and stories there’s lots of Facebook groups that I found very informative xx
I knew I had endo at 9. No doctor would listen to me until I was 25 😫😭
Thank you Tia for sharing your experience. The cramps are from a place called hell, and unfortunately you just reminded me!
Diet, and issues we grow up with are very, very important. I became a vegetarian, and eat a whole foods diet because of this, and some other reasons. (The hormones and the trauma the animals go through that we ingest and digest when we eat them are transferred to our own beings.
Tia, and for anyone who is interested in deeper healing, here are some great resources to look into:
- Queen Afua: She has books on female health issues, and healing.
- Gary Null: Is the guru on any health issue you want to know about and is into natural healing.
- Louise Hay: Her book, YOU CAN HEAL YOUR LIFE, is a great book that explains disease and healing on a metaphysical level. (RIP Ms. Hay!)
- Dr. Jewel Pookrum: Specializes in female reproductive disorders (mostly uterine fibroids), and Ethno-Consciousness differences in the human race.
Many, many Blessings!
Thank you so much.
Hola, can you please share your diet ?
I'm currently on my menstrual cycle and I just want to cry for you. 😭 It could be from the hormones haha But I completely agree that food intake is an absolute key to better life in general *And Jesus of course❤* But Thank you Tia so much for sharing your story! You are a warrior ❤

Pls tell more about the DETOX.
Why didn’t u take a short gap b/w 2 babies ? That could save u one more surgery
This made me feel like I wasn’t alone! I was diagnosed at the age of 18 and it was scary plus I was young! I found out a couple years ago that you had Endometriosis and I just thought to myself I would have never known that! Thank you for your story!
Thank you for sharing this with us Tia. I had three ectopic pregnancies due to scar tissue. Very painful physically and emotionally💖
This is what it meant to be a woman. This shit we go through and the fact that people just brush it off and said “oh you are women get used to it” change your diet eat less red meat, eat lot veggies, less dairy and sugar and take vitamin (organic one). Stay away from process food.
Had my first endometriosis laparoscopy yesterday, they found it on my left ovary and removed it. This video helped me. Ordered the cookbook too.
I have to have my laproscopy in 2 weeks to remove endo and 2 cysts on my left ovary. Did they have to remove your ovary? Did they mention if it would help fertility?
@@backroads227 they didn't remove my ovary, and my doc said it should help out and that I'm "in my prime" for baby making after the surgery. So we'll see...
Is the surgery done on the novel 😯?cause I think I have one on the right ovary
@@saprice13 were you able to get pregnant?
A couple of years ago.... I went to ER and found out I had uterine fibroids. It has been a long journey. But god is good! I became vegan 6 months ago! Thank you for sharing ur story Tia!
That is great!!! It was the best decision I ever made !😊
Try yoni detoxing
Did becoming a vegan help with the fibriods.
Yes it has help with fibroids
Praise god! Thank you for sharing 😊
Thank you for sharing this video with us. It is so helpful. I currently have fibroids on both ovaries and cyst. I always had horrible cramps but, I just thought it was cramps growing up as a teen. As I got older I realized something is wrong. It can be very depressing. We as women go through so much. Some days I am good some days I am down. It’s a process. We are survivors! 💖🤧
Yes we are! Thanks for sharing love ❤️
Tell me why I was just watching that episode of the game when Melanie got diagnosed with this!!
Hmm could it be that she had it put in the script since she played the character? Hmm
It’s because of that episode that I think many of these reproductive challenges that women face are due to having abortions.
@@robinlight tamera her sister played that rôle but i could see that connection
From the age 13 - 21 I went to the doctor/hospital with severe pain and was always told ‘it’s just a heavy period, take paracetamol’ until I was diagnosed last year so I feel ya on the long diagnosis process x
Wow I had no idea she had endometriosis. I know it affects so many women , but no one talks about it! The pain - simply indescribable and unbearable. It is literally debilitating. Stay strong women are the STRONGEST on earth 💙
Preach sister! I was misdiagnosed for approx 14 months. After missing way too much work to be acceptable and being in the ER every week for severe pain, nausea, etc and being sent home with nothing but a huge bill and feeling like the doctors really were not listening to me I finally had an ER follow up with a general PCP who took one look at me and my records and said "I bet you have endometriosis". I said endo-what?. He wasn't a "specialist" but he was a blessing and a catalyst to have my first laparoscopy to get diagnosed properly. The OB who did my lap tried to schedule me out several weeks and this Dr called her and said he wanted me in surgery within the next 48 hours. Even that OB didn't want to acknowledge my pain or my symptoms. This was back in 2010-11. There is alot more exposure and awareness now . I think the hardest part was the isolation. Feeling alone because you don't "look sick" but you have to cancel plans last minute because you cant even get out of bed. Friends simply don't understand. If I had Cancer (God forbid) then I would get sympathy and understanding but since I have a disease no one understands unless they have it, then I just look flaky and unreliable. My job pressured me once I got FMLA and tried to punish me for calling in (which is illegal and if it happens to you document everything and contact your state Dept of Labor).
I found solace being on IG and seeing how many women across the globe also struggle with this disease .. it's like a support system and sisterhood when you feel abandoned by friends and family. I was told I would never have kids and would keep needing maintenance surgeries. I have not had another surgery since 2011, however I am probably due. I was also informed about changing my diet and exercising in order to keep inflammation under control. I declined the Lupron due to the horror stories and side effects I heard. I took myself off hormonal birth control (which made me feel even worse) and just put my faith in my own instincts. I think each woman has to find out what works for her , regardless of what your doctor feels and also get several opinions. I went to approx 8 different Dr's and specialists and each one has their own method and opinion so it gets confusing. Listen to your OWN body just like Tia said. Sorry this is getting long. Best of luck to everyone struggling with invisible illness.
Thank you for this. I read every word. Did ypu end up having kids?
I was diagnosed 3 years ago, I want to get pregnant this year so scared of it doesn't happen. Sending love from Kenya 💞💞💞
Hi
I was diagnoses in 2016 after having what was believed to be an ectopic pregnancy . Fast foward, I had a surgery and changed my diet to non gluten . I now have 2 daughters . I will pray for you . It took me 8 months to get pregnant after my miscarriage.

Thank you for sharing this! I just found out I had endometriosis 3 years ago and I’ve been having these symptoms since I was 13. You have convinced me to change my diet, time to go buy your book!
I wish there was a way for them to check for endo without doing surgery. All this technology.
I ended up having an hysterectomy.... everything your saying is correct
Aww that’s awesome..Glad that everything has worked in y’all favor!!
Thank you so much for sharing. I wish I had gone for a second opinion but instead I chose to have a total hysterectomy 1994. Unfortunately I don't have any children but did manage to get pregnant in 1976 before I was diagnosed, but sadly I had a miscarriage.
Karen Gallimore thats sad ...💔
I cried watching this because I’ve been dealing with irregularities since I was 16 and now I’m 35 and doctors NEVER say the word endometriosis and they should be ashamed…. I’m now turning to natural solutions to see if it helps because I’m DONE with these lying, undereducated doctors without confidence or concern
My mother had endomitosis
And wasn't supposed to have kids
But somehow she had me, I was a miracle baby.
Women that have endomitosis usually never have kids/get pregnant and if it happens it's a miracle it's a blessing
LivingDeadGirl Melissa dame with my mom . Doctors literally demanded that she stopped trying.
I have endometriosis and lost an ovary beacuse i have ovarian cyst and had it removed and scar tissue and still no babis me and my husband been trying for 5 years
Same here! It was in the back of my mind growing up that she may have passed it down to me. And that i may not be able to have kids. Just got diagnosed at 20
LivingDeadGirl Melissa endometriosis **
“Women that have endometriosis usually never have kids..” girl what?! You must not do your research. Plenty of women with endometriosis have babies. It may be a little difficult, yes, but don’t get on here discouraging people. No offense.
God bless you.... we thank God for this breakthrough. we are happy that you have your kids and your husband.... great family... we've learned a lot
Thank you for being brave enough to share this Tia! 🙏 I have endometriosis and fibroids and I bought your book. Very helpful. Blessings to you sis😊
I had this condition as a girl fifty years ago at the age of thirteen. The doctor perscribed birth control pills. The pain stopped immediately. When I married and wanted to have children I stoppéd taking the pills and the pains came back. After I gave birth the pains stopped completely.
Gwen Williams I wish birth control did that for me 😞
Wow, lucky you. I was also encouraged to have children but I'm not married so the struggle continues.
I found out that I was diagnosed with endometriosis in March but I’m pretty sure I’ve had it for years! I am now urging myself to change my diet because I want to have kids with my husband like you Tia. I had surgery and my right ovary was removed, but my doctor said I can still have children and I’m keeping my faith! I need more advice because it’s a struggle to be in the unknown with endometriosis!
Tia,
First and foremost, may God continue to BLESS you and your family. I would like to thank you for sharing your journey regarding conceiving with endometriosis. I, too, am struggling with endometriosis. I am 33 years old and is two weeks from my 34th birthday. I have really been struggling emotionally because I really want to have children. My first surgery was at the age of 31 and that’s when I was diagnosed with endometriosis. My doctor said if you get pregnant the symptoms will improve, however the struggle is getting pregnant. As I get older, I’m only human so the thought of conceiving is constantly on my mind but I also struggle with the fact that as you get older the more challenging it is to conceive.
I have done cleanses, detox, everything you can think of I have done. Due to surgery as well as additional procedures my doctor, bills are putting a financial strain on my finances.
In spite of my circumstances, I will continue to give all the Glory and Praises to GOD. He would never put too much on me that I can not bear. I will continue to hold on to the faith that We will Conceive and there will be resources in place to help those who can not afford medical procedures to assist with reproducing.
I thank you again Tia for sharing your story and shedding light on this topic.
God Bless You and Everyone viewing this video and those struggling with endometriosis.
Respectfully,
Tiarra

Hi Tiarra, It's possible! Don't give up hope... I am 34 and have a 15 month old. I conceived naturally after my doctor told me I would need another surgery to have a chance. You are doing the right thing by staying positive and giving thanks for where you are... Those seeds of thanksgiving will push you to where you need to be! Focus on getting and staying healthy and happy. It is going to happen!! With Love -- Endo Sis
You are super brave and determined. U r so inspiring. Love ur bubbly spirit. Am writing from India💕
This was very informative and Tia's personality is soo cute and vibrant.
Thank you for sharing your story I have endometriosis and I wasn't able too have children but I have a loving husband and I'm happy life is good
I pray for my husband I because we trying and have been trying to conceive for 2 years. Any advice?
I just got diagnosed with endometriosis. It is so painful. I eat gluten free and dairy free mostly because I discovered it made my family and me feel better. I am now focusing on doing 100% of the time just to heal and feel better. You are an inspiration to me. Thanks for your support ❤
When I get my period I don’t go to school or leave the house. It’s just too painful like nothing works NOTHING the day I got my period in 5th grade I was in hella pain and was shaking and scared. I am 17 now I have blood clots in my legs and thighs which is incredibly dangerous and rare for my age and the pain is EVERYWHERE like wtf
I literally love her laugh. She’s so cute and I wish I can be as happy and confident as her after having my baby.
I just discovered your channel and I was hooked within a day! Your energy is infectious and I always end up smiling. However I also love that you keep it real. Thank you for telling us your story and bringing an awareness to this subject that is slowly becoming less taboo to talk about. So many women suffer in silence and live with endometriosis daily. It’s lovely to see you again Tia❤️❤️
Thanks for sharing Tia, undergoing surgery is never easy. I'm on my 5th doctor, 3rd surgery. I had an ectopic and lost one tube and my baby in 2013 and haven't been able to get pregnant again since. I have all the symptoms of endometriosis but the surgeries show no endometriosis. The first one showed alot of inflammation and the second one a pseudo cyst formed. I'm in pain physically, mentally and emotionally and it doesn't help when doctors can't give a straight answer. I would love to have a baby someday.
Are there any charities that help women get necessary excision surgery when they Can Not afford It on their own? I need to travel to CEC In Atlanta Georgia, for thoracic endo as no thoracic surgeons here will work with my current local endo specialist. My most debilitating symptoms actually started while I was on a low inflammatory diet and had been for 4 years. Unfortunately diet only helps some and for others It only helps for some time. ☹️
Sister Herbal medicine is the best to treat our body system naturally I I’ve been living with endometriosis 🤒😭 for more than 5years now but I got rid of it naturally after using dromo herbal medicine very good and active it help me fight over endometriosis naturally order 👉 youtube.com/@dromocure
It took my doctors 30 years before I collapsed at work and a locom doctor said straight away I think you have Endometriosis I cried with relief and told her I've been trying to tell my doctors for years that what I was experiencing wasn't normal and so painful. I was fainting alot from heavy periods and pain, I was being sick cramping over in the fetus position and chronic diarrhea. In the end they finally sent me for surgery for a laproscopy and removed it. But that was 5 years ago and the pain is back. I'm now trying to tell my doctors again repeatedly that this is Endometriosis but they said ibs then ibd then back to ibs again. Its so annoying that some doctors just don't listen and believe you know your body. I'm being sent for a blood test soon which I know is pointless as that doesn't diagnose this condition then there going to send me for internal probing to check my uterus yet that doesn't diagnose it either. I'm so frustrated I keep telling them they need to send me for a laproscopy instead of all this I've been through that already and I reckonise the pain. If I had the money to pay privately to get one done I would. I'm from the uk so all treatment is free unless we pay crazy money to go private. Honestly thank you so much for sharing your story maybe I should share it with my doctors as so many of us women we know our bodies and we know when it's not normal. I know this is Endometriosis again and I can't wait for them to sort me out it's debilitating.
Tia I appreciate you so much for sharing your story about having endometriosis. Like you, I experienced the worst cramps of my life in my early to late 20's I had days that I would ball up in a fetal position on the floor and just cry out in pain. I didn't know why I was suddenly experiencing so damn much menstrual pain whereas no pain meds seems to help. I was literally losing my sanity over it and was dreading every single months that came when it was that time. Like you, I went to my doctor, only to be told the exact same things your doctor told you and none of it worked. I wish I had known to go to a specialist. When I got married and we decided to start a family, that's when I found out not only that I had endometriosis, but that my tubes were far too damaged for me to have any kids because of the years I suffered with it and had nothing done about it. It's been 20 yrs now and I'm still emotionally hurt to this day that I couldn't have any kids for me and my husband to enjoy. I don't really get over it, I just learn to deal with it. I wish someone had told me about seeing a specialist. I figured since my doctor never mentioned it, it was no need to take it further than the things she told me to do. Some doctor huh? I'm blessed to have a wonderful sincere understanding husband who stuck by me through thick n thin, the high ups and low downs. You are blessed Tia and I'm so happy that you were able to have 2 beautiful children. You are an inspiration, I love your truth and honesty. Keep sharing girly. Much love to you ❤💕🌺 🤗
lexdee523 sorry, to hear. Have you tried changing your diet? My husband aren’t trying to have babies right now so I don’t know if there’s any issues with my uterus or now. But I have had horrible cycles for years. I would be so nauseated that I could barely stand. I would be cramping so badly that I would be balled up in fetal position crying and found myself missing school often. I would vomit because the pain was so intense. Once I stopped eating most fast food and frozen foods (other than chick Fil a now and then) and eating mostly cooked food (like grass fed meat, lots of vegetables, fruit, beans, nuts, rice here and there, smoothies with chia seeds) I saw a HUGE difference. The only symptoms I still experience is heavy bleeding and light cramps. My cramps are WAY better than they used to be and sometimes they not last for 1 day. I take blackstrap molasses before and during my cycle and it really does take the cramps away. I would encourage you to change your diet and look into natural remedies like blackstrap molasses.
@@IAmHisBeloved5 Thank you so kindly for your reply. As I had mentioned in my comment, it's been 20+ years now and my tubes were already damaged to the point of not being able to have kids by the time I got married. I know a lot more about it today than I did 20 something years ago. Seems my doctor didn't have much thorough knowledge about it herself to even tell me about diet changing which back then I wasn't into a lot of fast foods or fried foods too much, or to even recommend seeing a specialist about it. I'm more educated about it now so when I hear of someone I know that may be trying to have kids but are experiencing the same symptoms as I had, I come with recommendations that may help. Happy to say, because of my suggestions in cases such as this, a couple of my friends did seek out further help (through a specialist that is) and now have kids of their own. It still makes me sad that I wasn't able to enjoy the experience of motherhood but I'm happy for others I've helped who were able to. I'm in a good place in my life now. Outside of not being able to conceive, I have no regrets. But I do strongly encourage women to research and educate themselves and seek out further help if ever they find themselves in the same situation. I do wish you (and your husband) the best when the time comes that you two do decide to have kids. I would also like to add if I may. If you have any concerns about your tubes or uterus, you can make an appointment with your doctor to discuss having tests done to determine if everything is ok in those areas in the event that you choose to have kids down that road. Good luck to you.
You did it TIA!!!! Because you have two BEAUTIFUL children
Love you and for all you do be blessed.
I was on surgery grade pain meds for years tryna mask the pain only to become addicted not once did they consider looking into this severe pain I had to b my own doctor 🥼 😢 ty for sharing your story you will help others ask the doctors the right questions & demand solutions/answers
That's crazy but it sounds like what is typically heard. A lot of doctors just treat the symptoms instead of finding the cause. It keeps you sick and a residual money flow for them. When I see my doctor, I always ask a lot of questions and he's always open to sending me to see another doctor or a specialist if necessary. Doctors think they know it all but they aren't inside you and can't feel what you're feeling. I hope you've found a better doctor and treatment.
Sausha Kamara u r so right doctors think they kno it all when they just sitting at a computer guessin typing stuff into a doctor version of google all is well now I changed my diet & I don’t have horrible pain anymore or don’t require meds but I do still need to get to a specialist kinda scared lost a lot of faith in doctors
Thank you for sharing. My had cystic fibrosis. & I have really bad period cramps & nausea. Sometimes I’ll be throwing up for 24 to almost 48 hours on my periods. I miscarried at 18. & mom struggled to have me & my sister. & I have other infertility issues in my family. I’ve not be diagnosed with anything yet. Because sometimes there is a fear of knowing because we’ve siked ourselves out into believing that maybe there isn’t hope on the other side but thank you for sharing your story. I need this. 🙏🏾💕
Multi-vitamins!!!!! Endometriosis is horrible. I've been diagnosed as well. Today I was having the most horrible pains ever almost unbearable laboring pains. I am not a person that like to take pain killers or any pills. I am sitting there in massive pain and I looked to my dresser and set eyes on a bottle of Multi vitamins since. I am anemic and my cycles are heavy I said what the hey. I didn't take these vitamins in weeks and guess what? Immediate relief I couldn't believe it. I was hanging off my bed 5 min prior to not feeling anything. On top of that my period lightened up. If you can Please try so we can make a healthy observation.
Thanks for sharing. Lots of love coming from JAMAICA
I need podcasts from you Tia🥺🥺❤️❤️❤️❤️
Kamogelomaile she had one in 2016 called mostly moms
Thank you!
My doctor tried brushing off my symptoms. Even after experiencing menorrhagia after a mmc. I was told my bleeding was normal even after coming to the ER with my shoes filled with blood. Working on getting a better Dr to hopefully find out whats wrong. But I know it’s not normal.
Avigayil jasmíne brown I had been going to the same Dr. for years and they kept brushing my symptoms off. I did research and found Dr. Paul MacKoul at innovativegyn.com/ They are great!
No doctor has mentioned the eating habits to me.
Before I had my surgery, much of my eating habits had already changed for the better. So far, I don't think it's come back. However, I don't eat many processed foods, I don't have crazy amounts of sugar... I might need to be more conscious about laying off the dairy.
I'm also big on antiinflammatory foods/teas/spices for other reasons. So maybe I've been unintentional making good endo choices, along with good lifestyle choices
