  • After everything I've written about endometriosis, I realised that I haven't shared my own story! How I was diagnosed, what I went through - in fact what many of us go through... It's all here, well the first 10 years of it!
    I share all this in the hope that it will help someone out there - whether you suffer from endometriosis yourself or whether you're the family, friend or colleague of someone who does.
    Disclaimer: please remember that everything I share here is my personal experience. I am not providing any form of medical advice as I am not a medical professional. Please seek a doctor for your personal case.

    You are really an inspiration to all those people who suffer from different gynaec issues. Having the courage to openup about these issues gives strength to others that they are not alone in this suffering. Cheers to you .

    So sorry for your loss. Pets become part of the family, and the ones that help us get through tough medical issues are especially special.
    Thanks so much for sharing your story! Although I'm male, a couple of my friends have endometriosis, and this video helped me to understand better what they experience.

      Yes it's amazing how sensitive pets can be - how strong their senses are that they just get it.
      I'm really glad the video has helped you understand endometriosis a bit better. I hope many people like you look to read up on other health issues - it helps us be more sensitive to others. Thank you.

      I am currently trying to manage my adenomyosis and it is so so hard - the pain is incredibly debilitating at times. I hope you're getting the medical care you need to help manage it better?

    Oh my goodness, I am so sorry for the loss of your pooch, Toby! I know what it’s like to lose a precious pet! I lost my precious pooch, Ladybug. She was my fur baby. I started my period at the age of 11.

      Doesn't age 11 seem so very young to start suffering like this?! Not that any age is right!

      Thank you for sharing that because many women just live with it thinking it's normal and never even know that it's not. I'm glad the women in your family know they have PCOS. Is there something you do to help your symptoms?

      Hi Sai,
      I haven't completely recovered from PBS / IC - it requires me to manage my symptoms which I do by also treating my MCAS which is quite a trigger for my PBS.
