We’re diving into one of the most misunderstood conditions affecting women worldwide: endometriosis. Specialist Obstetrician Gynaecologist Dr Kimberley Norton-Old explains what it is, the symptoms that aren’t “just bad periods,” and why diagnosis can take years. She unpacks why pain doesn’t always match what appears on scans or during surgery - and why that matters. We also cover fertility concerns, hormone misconceptions, and whether hysterectomy is ever a “cure.” If you’ve ever felt unheard, this is your reminder: period pain that disrupts your life isn’t something you have to “push through.”
