A lot of them end up in the fertility clinics.

And if you spend a day with me in my office, you go home with a broken heart.

Because these patients travel from all over the country to come, they already know, right?

Because the CHAT GPT, they already know they have endo.

They just want a physician to validate them.

So they will fly to come because they want someone to say, yes, you're not crazy.

You have endometriosis.

And yes, there's a treatment and it's not in your head.

The problem is these patients talk about dismissal.

I can't even tell you the devastating side effects of this prolonged dismissal because no one wants to sit down and just listen to them.

You do not need a fancy blood test.

There's no blood test for endometriosis.

You don't need an ultrasound.

You don't need anything to diagnose endometriosis.

You just have to listen.

I met this gentleman in Paris who told me he has this blood test that's 95% accurate, that he's gonna release it.

This was a few years ago.

And I was like, great, that's great because we need a blood test.

But then when I was flying home, I was thinking to myself, my accuracy is 99.9% just by listening to the patient.

You don't need any fancy tools to diagnose.
