Hi there, this is a very old post and we’ve written more with much more credible sources. Whilst we now know Endo is a genetic condition, it is treatable and I will stand by this. Of course we are all different, but we are all the same in the sense that we are like petri dishes and a science experiment. We can influence our body based on the environment we put it in (emotions, diet, lifestyle, stress, etc) and indeed this will differ for everybody but there is always more that we can do. I say to patients when they are ticking ALL the boxes, the last to address is emotional stress which is by far the hardest but can certainly be at the root of Endo. I think you’d enjoy some newer articles I’ve shared. Thanks for commenting.

Also, “detrimental” to be on a good multi/ fish oil? So don’t do this is what you’re saying?

I’ve just found your website and I think its great that you are educating women on the pill as I agree in that so many women go on the pill without truly understanding and the MAJORITY of Doctors are doing such a poor job in educating women before they prescribe it. However, myself, having done the research myself as to what is in the pill & trying a range of contraceptives before settling on the mini pill, think that you need to talk a lot more about alternative options & education.

We might clash a bit here, but in fact I think that the pill needs to be way more accessible & affordable as currently there are way to many pregnancies & abortions, especially within younger women & women from a low socio-economic background. Women need to take a lot more responsibility for their bodies! In an ideal world, the pill won’t need to be more accessible as women will simply respect themselves a lot more & there will be less casual sex (it really disgusts me how society & the media encourage men & women to have so much emphasis on sex in our lives, not for intimacy but to fill a void). But the sad reality is that this is not the case & that too many people aren’t informed & don’t have access to contraception and this affects the life of a child, society, the government & the health system. Just my two cents but this is an interesting read and I think it is great you are going out there to educate women more because I learnt none of this at school or through my prescribing GP and all of it online! 🙂
