Thank you for sharing your stories it meant so much to me to know that I am not alone out here feeling unladylike constantly Moody talking to the same people knowing that it's annoying them but who else can you talk to is something that you have to deal with and go on from day-to-day and it's just not fair it's just outrageous pain just everything all of the above for me and I thank you ladies from sharing your stories.

I suffered with endometriosis for 10 years before a diagnosis. Was misdiagnosed with ibs for years. Then last year also diagnosed with adenomyosis. This is such a painful condition. The best pain treatment I discovered was a tens machine. No pills would ever touch the sides. I’m lucky to have two children. But honestly the pain is like contractions. Horrendous. Not enough awareness out there. 1 in 10 women is quite a high number. More research is definately needed.

Good to raise awareness but zero effort for diversity! Very disappointing, BBC you guys should know better!
