This reminds us that we need to approach this disease with understanding broader focus than gynecologic surgery or hormonal medication.

Each fall, monarch butterflies begin their long migration. Fragile, yet determined.

This week, we honor the “Butterfly Children” living with Epidermolysis Bullosa (EB), a rare condition that makes skin as delicate as wings but hearts stronger than most.

Our community goal is to raise $50,000 during our Unstoppable Migration Week (Oct 25–31) to fund life-changing research and move us closer to cures.

💙 Watch Rowan’s story — a young girl living with EB whose courage inspires this campaign:

Let's have an EB Awareness Week and fund a future with a cure!

Want to thank American Board of OB/GYN for making these articles required reading. I'm glad that more of my gynecology colleagues are learning about chronic pelvic pain and how we need to change our approach.

People ask me why I have success with treating chronic pelvic pain. I tell them that I consider myself a "regionalist" not a "specialist". Maybe it's time we incorporated that concept into our medical education.

How does endometriosis cause/contribute to infertility:

1. Abnormal perennial environment characterized by oxidative stress and higher concentrations of inflammatory cytokines effect s***m function (Meaning: constant inflammation affects how s***m move)
2. Abnormalities in oocyte cytoskeleton function
(Meaning: endometriosis can affect egg structure and function)
3. AMH is decreased in early stage endometriosis (Meaning: endometriosis may cause lowered egg count)
4. Tubal impact (scarring, blockage, etc.)
(Meaning: endometriosis can scar or block Fallopian tubes)

Cystectomy and Ablation Yield Comparable Pregnancy Rates, While Coagulation May Harm Fertility
