Endo: She's Expensive, She's Exhausting, She's Extra

🎙️Episode 21: Endo: She’s Expensive, She’s Exhausting, She’s Extra

Endometriosis isn’t just “bad cramps.” She’s a whole personality-loud, dramatic, and unfortunately, way too common. In this episode, Laura and Brandis get real about the reality of endo: how it shows up, why it often takes 7+ years to diagnose, and what it means for fertility.

What You’ll Hear in This Episode:

🚩 Why painful, heavy periods shouldn’t be brushed off as “normal”
🔍 Theories on what causes endometriosis (spoiler: it’s still misunderstood)
🩸 How endo impacts ovarian reserve, egg quality, and implantation
💊 Birth control, Lupron, surgery, and other treatment options -what helps and when
📉 The connection between endo and infertility, including what IVF outcomes really look like
💡 When to push for a second (or third) opinion if you feel unheard

Endo affects 1 in 10 women, but symptoms vary from none at all to completely debilitating.
The stage of endo doesn’t always match the level of pain; tiny lesions can equal massive impact.
Early recognition and proactive treatment can protect fertility and improve quality of life.
Your pain is valid. Don’t let anyone minimize it-advocate for yourself.

✨ Whether you’re managing endo, suspect you might have it, or just want to understand it better, this episode is packed with candid conversation, medical insight, and plenty of “she’s doing the most” energy.
