The APPG is meeting with #endometriosis patient group representatives this afternoon in #Westminster and online. We want to hear their concerns in order to inform our work in parliament. #engagement#WomensHealth
We have rescheduled our next meeting at which #endometriosis patient group representatives are invited to attend. Meeting will now take place on Tues 25 October. More details here: https://t.co/24FRJl62X1 #engagement
On behalf of the Endometriosis APPG, we are saddened to hear of the death of Her Majesty the Queen. Parliament will be adjourned for 10 days from Monday, and we will consequently be rearranging our upcoming meeting. We will update you in due course with a new meeting date.
@SarahE_NHS We are inviting groups who represent/advocate for endometriosis patients in order to hear what are the key concerns being raised by the endometriosis community in their local area/group membership.
We want to engage with #endometriosis community groups to inform our work in UK Parliament including at our next meeting on Weds 21 Sept. Organisations & groups representing those with endometriosis, please get in touch. More info here: https://t.co/9WgbTG7ZhK Thanks! #outreach
Thank you Nadine for sharing your #endometriosis experience. If you have received treatment in England, please fill out this survey to have your say on the future of care in England.

We urge everyone with #endometriosis to complete this survey and have your say. We will be working with the @DHSCgovuk to ensure endometriosis plays a key part in the outcomes of the Inquiry
Many women struggle with heavy and painful periods, yet this can be overlooked by healthcare professionals.
Help us shape the future of women’s health care so women's health and care needs are better met.
Have your say today 👇🏾

1 in10 women live with endometriosis- a condition where tissue similar to the lining of the womb grows elsewhere inside the body. It can be incredibly painful & take years to diagnose. Treatment hasn't improved in 10yrs. Until now? #EndometriosisAwarenessMonth@EndometriosisUK
Thank you so much to all the amazing speakers at the APPG meeting last night. The event will be up on YouTube later this week for anyone who missed it. @cystersgroup@DrLarisaTV, @EndometriosisUK and Amy James Kelly
Join us from 4pm to hear from @DrLarisaTV, Amy James Kelly, @neelamheera and Emma Cox from @EndometriosisUK about what's next for the future of #endometriosis care in the UK.

Next up @neelamheera from @cystersgroup, who is discussing the urgent need for research into additional barriers faced by those from under represented groups.
The main focus of awareness month is to break down that stigma. Workplaces as well as the government need to recognise that 10% of their female (or those assigned female at birth) will have #endometriosis
Emma Cox, CEO of @EndometriosisUK discusses that 80% of 16-24 would put off going to the GP about #endometriosis. That’s why raising awareness around this topic is so important to ensure symptoms aren’t minimised.
Sir David Amess MP is today calling on the Government to make a commitment to reduce diagnosis time for #endometriosis with a target of an average of 4 years or less by 2025, and a year or less by 2030. @amessd_southend
