3 // My Journey With Period Pain And Endometriosis

See this content in the original post

In this episode, I share my personal journey with period pain from a young age, how I navigated that through my adolescent years and into adulthood, and the path to being diagnosed with endometriosis.

I discuss the complexities to diagnoses and treatment, the barriers in the medical system, the privilege that exists and the medical misogyny and gaslighting. I share my personal story of being treated abroad for endometriosis, the reasons why and the results.
