Endo Warrior Wednesday: Endo Resources Round Up

Endo Warrior Wednesday: Endo Resources Round Up

March is Endometriosis Awareness month. This is a bittersweet feeling of joy for me. I love spreading my message and helping others but endometriosis is a condition that caused me significant distress and pain in my life.

It’s so easy to dismiss the symptoms as just a “bad period” but it’s so much more than that. To get the low down on what Endo is and what it isn’t get the Endo Facts here!

1 in 10 women have endometriosis but every single one of us has a unique story. Remembering how low I felt and the dark place I was when I finally was diagnosed still brings tears to my eyes but I never gave up. I kept advocating until I got answers. Read my endometrosis story here!
