I wrote about my journey with Endometriosis, which is ongoing. It's everything I wish I knew and things I learned that help with symptoms. Such as what procedures work, and to always keep positive. Persistent pelvic pain is much more than just that and we shouldn't be shoved aside.

My journey with Endometriosis has been a long one. As it has for many women I have talked to online or come across. I began writing this over six years ago, but it is actually a lifetime of work. I am currently thirty-four, and my symptoms began when I was eleven. It took seventeen years to diagnose me, but for the last six of those I kept telling doctors I thought I had Endometriosis. Only to not be heard and to be given pain killers or birth control. It's horrible the trauma physically, mentally and financially I had to endure as it was. There are actually good doctors out there, and even though it took way to long I'm thankful for the ones I ended up with after almost two decades.
