Good days and bad. 5 years in pain. 1 in 10 women. #Endometriosis
I never thought I’d be happy to hear “I found and removed stage 2 endometriosis” from a surgeon...but after years of doctors and even loved ones brushing off my pain, it felt good to feel validated that I wasn’t crazy all this time. On average, women go 8-10 years before they are diagnosed with endometriosis. Why? Because talking about periods is taboo and painful periods are assumed normal by society.
Unexplained pelvic/low back pain (especially but not limited to your period), bladder & bowel issues are the warning signs although you can only have one of these symptoms and still have endometriosis. I share my story in hopes of helping anyone who finds themselves in the same boat. Reach out to me before you spend the next 5 years in pain like I did. To fight endometriosis, you truly have to be your own advocate.
