Story

Not many people know but I have been suffering from endometriosis for about 8 years now but I have only been diagnosed with having the disease for around 4 years. This is because Doctors refuse to recognise that endometriosis happens in teenagers and IS actually a common problem. If it was caught earlier I may not of had to have one operation already, as well as currently waiting on a second. 

By supporting Endometriosis UK it allows them to carry out research to try and find a cure for endometriosis and to support sufferers like me. 

Endometriosis UK are looking for signatures on their petition to make the Government create a National Strategy for endometriosis. If they are successful it will set quality standards for endometriosis care and set clear clinical pathways for patients. 

Please help this cause by donating and signing the petition on http://www.change.org/p/women-need-a-national-strategy-for-endometriosis
