Our conversation with a very brave 29 year old Chloe discusses how she had to push and wait for years to get a diagnosis (as many endo sufferers do) through a laparoscopy and from there how she started managing her condition and the impact it has had on her life.

Symptoms of severe pain began as a teen during her menstrual cycle and the management was through birth control, she discusses how it impacted her moods and weight. After coming off this, the severe symptoms began including painful intercourse and intense flare ups. She talks us through her journey of hospital visits, ER admissions and the isolating journey she has walked so far.

There is so much helpful information in here for endometriosis sufferers through as well as from Jeff Butterworth (our registered Naturopath & founder of Healthy Happy You) and those who know people with the condition This is a heart wrenching story and really highlights how women are suffering in silence and the tough path so many women who suffer from this disorder have to walk with so little understanding and support.

We hope this touches you and helps create more awareness and understanding around the condition so other women can get their diagnosis earlier and start getting their lives back on track and taking care of themselves in the way they need to to manage their condition with the support and guidance that they deserve.
