Maria Nardecchia - Endometriosis and the Taboo of Women's Health

Summary
I'm going to go ahead and say it: every single woman out there needs to hear this podcast. It is all about "the most common disease you've never heard of": endometriosis. I've heard the story a million times and have experienced it myself: a woman shares intolerable symptoms with a trusted friend or doctor and is met with this advice: these are the cards you've been dealt as a woman, it's something you'll have to just deal with. Unfortunately this advice that we often hear is the furthest thing from the truth. Most intolerable symptoms that women go through can be explained by an underlying cause - sometimes something as simple as hormone imbalance, and other times with a more complicated diagnosis like endometriosis. Yet, for some reason, few women are ever educated on what these diseases are. Maria Nardecchia has her own remarkable journey to finally receiving a diagnosis of endometriosis and joins us today to educate us all on what this disease is and discuss how many women unknowingly suffer from it.

This website has an incredible initiative to supply school nurses with toolkits to help them recognize endometriosis symptoms in girls, as they are often the first to hear the early symptoms. To find out more, visit: https://www.endowhat.org/educate
