Eight things endometriosis sufferers want you to know

Endometriosis is not uncommon. It s believed to affect one in 10 who menstruates. Yet it s still widely misunderstood, and those affected can struggle for years before getting proper help. Because it s associated with the menstrual cycle (it occurs when cells similar to those that grow in the womb lining grow outside the womb too, resulting in inflammation, scar tissue or adhesions and blood-filled cysts/endometriomas), it s often dismissed as being just bad periods . But endometriosis is a medical condition which can have a huge impact. So, this Endometriosis Month, here are eight things everyone needs to know… 1. It s not just period pain

Kidderminster woman with endometriosis speaks out about taboo condition

Alexandra Bennett, from Kidderminster, was diagnosed with endometriosis 18 months ago EVEN as a teenager, Alexandra Bennett somehow knew she would have problems getting pregnant when she was older. She had suffered with debilitating period pains throughout her late teens - some were so strong she would pass out in agony - but the contraception and pain relief doctors prescribed had little effect. It took around four years for Alexandra to be diagnosed with endometriosis. She woke up from surgery 18 months ago only to be told the news she had always feared - that she would be unable to conceive naturally.

North-East residents are wheelie bin swimming due to lockdown ban on travel

COLD water swimmers banned from the beach due to lockdown have been dipping in wheelie bins to get their fix. New Zealand man Ian Stimpson was not much of a swimmer growing up but is now “addicted” to dips in the cold North Sea after living in the North-East for 22 years. Despite living on the coast in South Shields, Mr Stimpson borrows his neighbour’s wheelie bin – “because it gets jet washed” unlike his – to dip in when the sea is too rough. He said: “The endorphins are addictive.” The 54-year-old is now taking part in a Polar Bear Challenge to swim every day from November to March and raise money for Endometriosis UK after a friend shared her experience with the condition publicly.
