Naomi and Bindi are #walkingtheworld4endo to support Gabs, who has endometriosis and adenomyosis. We all want better treatment options than have been available to Gabrielle for young people being diagnosed with endometriosis today.

Women's health research receives a fraction of the research money it deserves. Almost everything we know about human health comes from the study of men and male animals. This leaves an enormous knowledge gap in medicine when it comes to diseases that solely or predominantly affect women. We are literally decades behind in our understanding of the biological mechanisms of diseases like endometriosis. Every dollar that you sponsor us on our walk goes towards vital research that will help to bridge this knowledge gap.

Thank you ever so much for your support!

Gabs, Naomi and Bindi

Some stats about endo from endohelp.org.au

- #Endo is a debilitating condition affecting #1in9 women making it as common as asthma or diabetes. It has no cure

- It is estimated to cost the Australian economy $9.4bn a year and the individual about $30 000. The dollar signs don't fully explain the ripple effect that constant pelvic pain has on a person’s life.

- As a collective we are going to walk the 40,075km needed to walk around the world.
- We are walking to spread the message that PERIOD PAIN THAT INTERFERES WITH YOUR LIFE ISN'T NORMAL and needs medical attention.

We are walking to say we SEE YOU, and we BELIEVE you.
