Funny how these subpar surgeons keep blocking us when we acknowledge/state that their approach to Endometriosis is harmful to patients.

I was told the same thing by my fertility doctor as if it is nothing to worry, which lead to a 3 yrs of trauma with 3 major surgeries. We need to create the awareness in the doctors first that this is not a simple thing to brush away #endometriosis

#Endometriosis Endo What? last year noted that 58% of patients had visited doctors 10 times before getting a diagnosis. Given that endo has some classic and predictable symptoms, that is a pretty big black eye for a speciality field?Some visits may have been pc, still classic sx

#endometriosis Almost 300 pages of data analysis on the original study data on lupron that was never fully reported to physicians or patients noting serious issues, the lack of which prevented informed choices by physicians and patients

@Mikhail_MIGS @TheBSGE Many patients in need of surgery for DIE are experiencing complications of their endo, including some reported bowel ruptures when pregnant before endo is resolved in my group of 124,000 patients

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

[Endometriosis Surgeon India @VimeeBindra]
