This week, we're easing the endo belly!

Did you know the endo belly might not be just caused by endometriosis?

In fact, it's most likely not!

Whilst the inflammation from endometriosis can definitely cause the endo belly at certain times of your cycle or make it worse, there are other contributing factors.

There are many other potential factors contributing to your own personal endo belly, from coeliac disease (which is common in the endo community) to chronic stress. To learn more about the possible causes, have a listen to this podcast.

Clearly, there are multiple areas to possibly address when it comes to healing the endo belly, and we're not going to solve it all with just tea, but the first step is for us to get you feeling a little better so you have the encouragement, energy and health to even consider those steps...

So this week, we're drinking peppermint tea.
