How Endometriosis Hijacks Your Gut, Brain, and Fertility | Dr Jill Ingenito

💬 “  When people come in to see me for pelvic pain, you need to convince me that you DON’T have endometriosis.”

⚡️ Dr Jill Ingenito is an endometriosis excision surgeon, one of few Ob/Gyn’s specialising in the field. She’s amassed a strong following online, talking about this chronically under represented health issue affecting so many women.

⚡ In this episode Jill and I explore just how common endometriosis is, why it takes so long for women to be diagnosed and what the condition does inside a woman’s body.

🎧 Stay tuned to find out:

➡︎ Why so few in healthcare know to look for endometriosis

➡︎  Why we’re probably drastically underestimating how many people have the condition

➡︎ How endometriosis can spread all over your body - including your eyes

➡︎ Why more people need to know about the “endometriosis rainbow”

➡ How to best advocate for yourself if you think you’ve got the condition
