Manage episode 469646575 series 2895697
Endometriosis pain is not just bad cramps. It is a whole-body disease that affects the pelvis, bowels, bladder, nerves, and more. Yet, many women are dismissed, misdiagnosed, or told their pain is just part of being a woman. In this episode, we discuss:
- The different types of endometriosis pain, including pelvic pain, nerve pain, painful intercourse, and bowel issues
- Why pain medications often do not provide relief
- The reality of medical gaslighting and delayed diagnosis
- Effective treatment options when you have tried everything for your pain.
