Endo Battery Fast Charged: EP 13

Send us a text with a question or thought on this episode ( We cannot replay from this link)Is pregnancy really a cure for endometriosis, or just another myth we've been led to believe? We're pulling back the curtain on this age-old belief with the latest research that paints a far more complex picture. Join us as we unpack the significant findings from the study "Endometriosis and Risk Factors in Pregnancy, Labor, and Delivery." Here, we reveal the heightened risks of gestational hypertension, preeclampsia, and other complications that challenge the oversimplified advice often given to those with endometriosis. Alongside passionate discussions and insights, we emphasize the crucial need for comprehensive and informed care for expecting mothers navigating this condition.Yet, the conversation doesn’t stop there. Sexual health communication for those with endometriosis often feels like the elephant in the exam room—unacknowledged and unaddressed. Inspired by the compelling study "No Doctor Ever Asked Me, So I Thought It Wasn't a Valid Concern," we expose the barriers that stifle these vital discussions. We delve into patient experiences to illuminate systemic issues, training gaps, and the often awkward dynamics between doctors and patients. Our mission? To empower individuals with the confidence and knowledge to advocate for their sexual health and get the well-rounded care they deserve.Links Endometriosis and risk factors in pregnancy, labor and delivery: a case-control study.
