In this episode I speak about my experiences of the symptoms of endometriosis and different ways I deal with it. I chat about trying out the AIP diet and other tips and tricks that have helped me. Endo is something that was taking over my life and becoming debilitating for me. Although I still have symptoms, some of these changes I have made have helped me a lot with the pain and improved my quality of life.
1 in 10 women in the UK and Ireland have endometriosis. A 2024 report found that more than 37,000 women were on hospital waiting lists in Northern Ireland for gynaecological services with 5% of those waiting nearly three years for treatment.
I know how sensitive and difficult this topic is and I am aware these tips may not help everyone but I thought I would share them in case they helped at least one person. This is not medical advice and I have also went down the traditional medical route. I just wanted people struggling with this condition to see that things can get better. <3 xxx
