The word Endo is becoming more and more commonly heard in discussions around health and period pain. Endo aka Endometriosis is a common disease where tissue similar to the lining of the womb grows outside it in other parts of the body.

More than 830,000 of Australians suffer from endometriosis at some point in their life. But the symptoms are variable and the process of diagnosis is long. 

But why do we know so little about it? And why does it take so long to get a diagnosis?

Claudia is currently on her own Endo journey, so we thought she was the perfect girl to sit down with Dr Kavya and get some answers. 

NOTE: A small correction to the definition of endometriosis stated in this poddy: endometriosis is a condition where tissue very similar to the endometrium (the lining of the uterus) is found growing outside of the uterus.

Wouldn't it be magnificent if we had a manual to navigate us through life? Unfortunately, this doesn't exist, but lucky for you this podcast does! Jenna and Nikolina don't claim to know the answer to every WTF question that comes by... but each week they sit down with people who have a little more experience. So, come along on this wild ride of pretending like anyone knows what they are doing. How To... Life is the 'Mother's Group of Life Detangling' and boy there are some difficult babies in this class!
