Oftentimes these comments make us feel worse and invalidate how we feel and what we’re going through. #endometriosis

A #hysterectomy is not a #cure for #endometriosis. Endometrial implants can grow OUTSIDE of your uterus. If your surgeon is suggesting a hysterectomy as your only option get another opinion.

It is important that #hysterectomy doesn’t became a default for women’s health issues, including #endometriosis - read more here, including the correct descriptions of the different types of hysterectomy https://t.co/epy9P2qQuv

I am soooo GLAD that this topic is coming to light 💡Endometriosis is considered a “White Woman’s” illness which can delay a clear diagnosis in the Black & Brown community for up to 10+ years. Because it isn’t taken as seriously with us, by this time it can already be too late🎗

The purpose of this resource portal is for people of color who are experiencing pain and suspect they may have endometriosis to receive the correct information and hear from patients who look like them and have had similar experiences with the disease.

Genetic predisposition plays a role in endometriosis. Daughters or sisters of women with endometriosis are at higher risk.

The most powerful force in medicine is the self-advocating patient

Listen to your body

Endometriosis is a paradoxical disease. I have had a long journey of suffering from debilitating pain & have encountered years of run-in’s with healthcare workers who have dismissed my pain/ symptoms. Dr. Mona Orady shows compassion & is truly a patient advocate. #endometriosis

Does a #hysterectomy cure #endo pain? We asked a professional! Watch an expert in complex surgery, #MenstrualDisorders, fibroids, and #endometriosis explain her experience with patients seeking a hysterectomy: https://t.co/yKKaWvfUrN

I had my first diagnosis at 32, overlooked by several doctors and 5 gynecologists for over 10 years. A couple of excision surgeries later, I am now surviving and thriving ✨ #endometriosis #laparoscopic #womenshealth #excisions #endostrong #endowarrior 🎗

Periods don't stop for pandemics.

Period supplies are not a luxury. They are a need. Not having them threatens a sense of self, dignity, and ability to participate in life.

1 in 10 women have endometriosis, let’s bring awareness and shed light on this debilitating disease. How long did it take for you to get a diagnosis? #endometriosis #endo #1in10 #WomenSupportingWomen #womenempowerment #womenshealth #endowarrior
