International Women’s Day isn’t just about celebrating strong women.

It’s about recognizing the women who had to become strong.

The mothers raising children while healing parts of themselves.
The women breaking cycles no one else in their family broke.
The ones learning boundaries, self-respect, and peace later than they should have had to.

There are women out there doing the quiet work of healing.

And that kind of strength changes generations.

Happy International Women’s Day to the women doing the work no one sees.

These are just a few of our books & e-books about endometriosis.

March is Endometriosis Action Month.

Endometriosis affects 1 in 10 women and those assigned female at birth in the UK. That's over 1.5 million. But only half the population knows about it.

Learn more by borrowing these titles from our libraries or on BorrowBox. What else would you add to our collection?

Endometriosis occurs when cells similar to the ones in the lining of the womb (uterus) are found elsewhere in the body.
