Endometriosis awareness and fertility with my wife, Vicky Gooden
Manage episode 310134904 series 3048923
This week I speak to my wife! Vicky suffers from Endometriosis and was only diagnosed in 2016 after years of misdiagnosis and unexplained pain. As March is Endometriosis Awareness Month, I thought it a timely conversation to be having with the aim to raise awareness of this debilitating disease that effects around 180 million women worldwide. More funding and research is needed to offer quicker diagnosis and more effective and less invasive procedures to treat it.
We chat about Vicky’s symptoms, surgeries and her approach to natural remedies once she was diagnosed. We also touch on fertility, a closely associated issue related to Endometriosis. It’s important we continue to talk about this condition, us fellas included.
For more information you can check out Vicky’s own blog at www.vickygooden.com where you can go through the archives to read her accounts of when she was first diagnosed plus her own coverage of Endometriosis Awareness Month. You can also follow her @vickygooden on Instagram.
