Have you struggled to get diagnosed, be believed or get the right treatment for endometriosis? This book is for you.
We still don’t know what causes endometriosis, and we don’t know how to cure it either. What we do know is that it can cause debilitating pain and seriously impact mental health. Contrary to popular belief, endometriosis is not ‘just a bad period’, it is a whole-body disease which is as common as asthma or diabetes. Yet it is barely covered in medical school training, leaving sufferers repeatedly dismissed when trying to access medical care.
Packed with up-to-date scientific knowledge and interviews with endometriosis specialists and those affected by the condition, this manual will empower you to make informed decisions and get the right care. Jen Moore breaks down the myths and misinformation, and helps you to feel seen, heard, and most importantly, believed.
This is your must-read guide to advocating for your health. It offers a beacon of hope among a sea of doubt and loneliness that endometriosis can bring, and a source of strength and validation for the 190 million of us diagnosed with endometriosis worldwide.
Everything you need to empower yourself about endometriosis, from how to manage the symptoms, even what to pack in the hospital bag, to managing lifelong symptoms – highly recommended this. * Dr Nighat Arif, author, GP, broadcaster *
A refreshing read from lived experiences. This is a useful overview on endometriosis and the challenges it creates. I love that it's inclusive and highlights inequities that exist too.

Jen is an amazing advocate, campaigner and educator within the community. She always conveys her message and information with empathy, accuracy and relatability.

An essential book that will help all women feel less alone on their endometriosis journey, and help educate and inform those who don't understand what endometriosis is and all its complexities. This book will change so many women's experiences, thank you Jen for writing it. -- Clare Bourne, author of 'Strong Foundations'
