Thank you for this documentary ❤ it’s really hard to explain the level of pain when the only option for your brain is shut down everything and you faint just because the pain is extreme. It took me 15 years to be diagnosed
I had abdominal surgery to remove my endometriosis 4 day ago. Only just realised the monumental journey it is; the mental and physical adjustments. I thought I was just an exhausted parent trying to balance job/life. Realising it’s essential with how I use my energy, and I should not feel bad about it.
I'd always had horrendous cramps every month and I recall discussing it with my sister. My out-of-touch father walked over and innocently said "You girls know that it's all in your heads, right?" I had never been so angry with him in my life up to that point.
After 31 years. Endometriosis Diagnosis.
I'm 43. Thanks God🇮🇹🇵🇭
Me same, same age, I pretty much think I had it since I was 16, diagnosed 3 years ago
I am happy to see that there is finally some progress in this field, and hopefully many women in the future will be spared the pain that me and other endometriosis sufferers have gone through for decades.. Not to mention the numerous surgical interventions, resulting scars (some of my cysts had to be removed through the abdomen), the need for medication and the associated costs... And then there are still the resulting disruptions to a normal personal, work and social life.
I wouldn't wish this even on an enemy.
Thank you for commenting :)
It’s a nasty chronic disease not ‘just period pain’. Sending hugs xx
Thank you ❤
Recently been diagnosed after 20 plus years of pain. Found a good Dr that has been a Godsend informed me that Endo is autoimmune. She recommended getting off gluten immediately which I did and has helped. I may or may not have the surgery... I think it important to gwt the root cause. An aspect that I have found really difficult is the judgement of other women who downplay your symptoms as if its not possible that you are in that much pain. I have found this to be one the hardest things therefore kept it too myself however I know now it very real
Either hysterical or crazy, the only response men have to women. My best friend has extreme pains. Not every month, but when she has them, she is reduced to tears.
