This week we are diving into Endometriosis in a very educational-heavy episode pulling sources from Johns Hopkins Medicine, Mayo Clinic, and Endometriosis Foundation of America. This episode is to act as a way to get this important information out about one of the most common reproductive disorders among women! We dive into what Endometriosis is, symptoms, risk factors, complications, and other important information! The show notes are full of sources for further reading and even YouTube videos to dive further into this important topic!
