Today is the start of #endometriosisawarenessmonth
I am hoping by sharing this, it creates awareness and reminds those like me, that they are not alone.
Symptoms can vary per person, but the majority will experience severe period pains with heavy bleeding, vomiting, diarrhoea, pelvic and hip pain, as well as bloating, and can result in fertility issues.
For me, it was nearly 10 years of doctors appointments, countless scans, and two operations to get a diagnosis.
I go through super plus or even ultra tampons every hour, I have to set alarms through the night so I don't wake up surrounded by blood, and the pain is so unbearable that it often leaves me rolling around on the floor in agony. It really is pain like no other and causes me to be physically sick.
Periods are nothing to be embarrassed by, and if you suffer, please don't push it aside. Your health is important.
It is not just a "bad period".
