How do you recognize the signs of inflammatory response, and what can you do to help curb it? EndoFound’s Scientific & Medical Director, Dr. Dan Martin, is back on Let’sTalkPeriod to give you the information you need to help manage your endometriosis pain.

Our friends at the UBC Endometriosis Pelvic Pain Laboratory just released a critical resource for those who have endometriosis and painful sex. The Sex, Pain & Endometriosis manual provides easy-to-understand info, treatment options, resources, and answers to frequently asked questions. They’re also hosting two events: A Reddit AMA on 9/23 (r/endometriosis) plus a virtual screening of 6 endometriosis stories of love, loss, pain, hope and resilience followed by a panel discussion with the storytellers themselves on 10/21.

Two years ago, 18 year-old Ally Bowers began experiencing her first endometriosis pain. Ally had her first surgery a little over six months ago, and now, despite still feeling some pain, is feeling hopeful and relieved. She writes, “I will forever be grateful of how strong, hopeful, and patient I was and have been with myself… Although everyone has a different story, I hope mine is inspiring, especially to young girls who are going through what I did.”
