@PsykeShow I think it's like a psychological thing where you put pressure on yourself to sleep because you need to get up early. Usually it's subconsciously π I think lots of people have that actually
Content creation is so dystopian now.
If you were in during the golden age 10-15 years ago you could just "work hard", and "be consistent".
Now its full of desperation where you have to have some crazy gimmick, know someone, start drama, or win the luck lottery to make it.
I was NOT expecting Bryan Johnson to be a voice for endometriosis π
But as a woman with endo I do hope he can invest money into research as it is extremely under-funded
Examining Kateβs 1%
She has suspected endometriosis. This affects at least 1 in 10 women, likely more.
Here sheβs getting an ultrasound.
Historically you needed surgery just to diagnose it (incisions are made in the abdomen). We're doing a non-invasive route.
Typically women live with endometriosis for 7-10 years before being diagnosed. Itβs the leading reason women aged 30 to 34 get hysterectomies (permanent surgery to entirely remove the uterus).
This condition is where endometrial-like tissue starts growing outside the uterus, in ovaries, bowel, bladder, even the diaphragm. This tissue inflames, scars, and glues organs together.
Our first step is to find out if @_katetolo has it.
Initial measurements weβre doing:
+ trans vaginal ultrasound
+ pelvic MRI w and w/o contrast
+ hormonal labs
All during the early part of her cycle to get the clearest picture.
During her ultrasound, a slim probe, about the width of two fingers, 10-12 inches long (although only a small portion is inserted) is covered with a protective sheath and lubricant and gently inserted into the vagina (patient has to empty their bladder first). This creates real-time images of the uterus, ovaries, and surrounding pelvic structures. While inserted, the probe is turned 90 degrees to evaluate all the various structures, angles and views. There is no radiation exposure.
The technician is looking for scarring, ovarian cysts, adhesions, and for organs that are fused together with tissue. This ultrasound can confirm endometriosis but it cannot rule it out.
What endo does to the body:
+ 90% report pelvic pain
+ 50% report severe fatigue
+ 26% report infertility. However many sources cite 30 to 50 percent.
+ 50% experience pain during sex.
+ Many have pain with ovulation, bowel movements, and urination
+ Severe bloating called βendo bellyβ where the abdomen visibly distends
There are a handful of theories about why endometriosis develops but the honest answer is no one is quite sure.
Weβll keep you posted on her results.
