Closed Raise awareness of endometriosis among young women and doctors

Closed on

On average it takes 7.5 years for a woman to be diagnosed with endometriosis, this is often due to being told “it’s just bad menstrual cramps” or can be totally miss diagnosed. This is due to the education about the chronic illness.
