🩺 Endometriosis: Don’t wait years for answers
1 in 7 Australian women live with endometriosis.
But many wait 6–10 years for a diagnosis.
⚠️ What to look out for
If you (or someone you know) experience:
Severe period pain (not just “normal cramps”)
Pain during s*x
Heavy bleeding
Ongoing pelvic pain
Fatigue, bloating or brain fog
Trouble falling pregnant
👉 This is not something you should just put up with.
❗ Why it matters
Endometriosis is:
A chronic, whole-body condition
Not just a “period problem”
Something that can affect work, relationships and fertility
Early support can make a huge difference.

Specialist pelvic pain clinics (growing nationwide)
Better GP pathways and treatment options
Increasing awareness and support
