Excellent visual representation of the heterogeneity of Endometriosis from the trailblazers at @extrapelvicnotrare

Repost from @extrapelvicnotrare

#Endometriosis is a disease that is heterogenous in many ways. As such it is considered ‘The Great Masquerader’ for its mimicry of other conditions among nonreproductive organs. Other heterogenous traits include its capacity to remain asymptomatic through portion(s) or a persons entire life span;
depth of penetration from the peritoneal surface into tissues or arising from within the ovary; cell composition with capacity to undergo metaplasia as cysts, plaques, nodules or combinations of these. This slide presents a variety (not comprehensive) of scenarios persons experience during their lifespan from premenarch and adolescence through menopause and beyond. In addition, representation of the (9) recorded colour descriptions are included. It is established that lesion color is associated with age, activity and composition of a lesion. It is possible for a person to have lesions at various stages of activity, thus host a variety of colors. It is also important to realize that, cessation of symptoms does not equate to disease resolution or cure. There are numerous factors that contribute to disease activity and symptom magnitude to include, but not limited to, gene expression, heredity, environmental exposure, and stress. #Skittles #EndometriosisColors #EndoRainbow #ProgressiveDisease #MultiSystem #MultiOrgan #GreatMasquerader

Starting tomorrow, @americanendofendoproject will be starting #mentalhealthmonday. Everyone who has Endo or any other chronic illness understands how emotionally draining it can be to live with constant pain. While some people have moments of sadness and frustration, others have clinical depression. Regardless, anyone struggling with chronic illness/pain knows the toll that the physical symptoms can take on mental health.

Continue to follow us, and keep an eye out for future #mentalhealth posts on upcoming Mondays!!!

Remember, true health includes the mind, body, and soul.
