Endometriosis is a common health issue affecting women—one in ten women have it! And I would say that probably ten out of ten women have been dismissed by their doctor at some point in their journey. Because typically, you go to your doctor with signs and symptoms of endometriosis, and the first thing you're told is, “Oh, here, just take the pill. Here's a painkiller; periods are meant to be painful and that's just the way it is.” In this episode, we’re going to talk about the symptoms of endometriosis and some strategies to help you get the care you need.Many women go for years struggling because doctors dismiss their symptoms and try to suppress them with medications—without getting to the root cause. Sometimes doctors have to use some form of hormonal contraceptive to treat a woman with symptoms of endometriosis, but that doesn’t mean they shouldn’t ask why she has these symptoms.On today's episode, Cody goes into a deep dive about the what, why and how when it comes to understanding Endometriosis.Did you learn something new today?
