Thank you to everyone who attended our month of patient and medical conferences! We hope you learned more about proper treatment and management of the disease from experts in endometriosis excision surgery, fertility specialists, acupuncturists, nutritionists, and patients alike. For those who had registered, all conference sessions are now available on our website for you to add to your management toolbox and watch whenever you like. The more you know, the better you can advocate for your proper treatment. And consider a donation today to help us continue our free programming in the hopes of creating, one day, a world without endometriosis.

This week on the Blossom, registered nurse and endometriosis patient Morganne Skinner shares a comprehensive guide on everything you need to know about acupuncture. Can acupuncture reduce endometriosis pain? There’s promising science behind how acupuncture works and why it may be helpful for you. Learn more about the practice today, as well as what to expect in your first visit and how to find an acupuncturist near you.

When Ellie first started learning more about endometriosis, she read other patients’ stories. “I was searching for books to try to relate to stories and find ways to help my body,” Ellie writes, “yet every story I came across made me terrified and anxious about my new diagnosis and the journey my body was about to embark on.” Now, reading their stories has also helped Ellie recognize just how different everyone’s experience with the disease is—and, more importantly, she writes, “every diagnosis is justified.”
