Adolescent endometriosis is a previously overlooke

Adolescent endometriosis is a previously overlooked disease in children, the true prevalence of which is still unknown but has been estimated between 19-73%. There are numerous initial challenges faced by adolescents suffering from delayed or undiagnosed endometriosis apart from experiencing chronic pain, such as: school/work absenteeism, false diagnoses/treatments, erroneous physician referrals, unnecessary radiological studies, radiation exposure, and emergency room visits as well as early exposure to narcotic pain medications and subsequent drug tolerance, resistance or even addiction.

For more information and in preparation for this month's webinar, check out the textbook edited by Dr. Ceana Nezhat, "Endometriosis in Adolescents." During the webinar on January 30th at 10am PST/1pm EST, we'll be hearing the stories of many patients who's symptoms started as teenagers. To register, click the link in our bio.

REPOST FROM @vania.mento (translated from Italian)

REPOST FROM @vania.mento (translated from Italian)

In Italy we are about three million women suffering from #endometriosis, three million women who for years have suffered silently, misunderstood, and in solitude. Because endometriosis is not seen and therefore, for most people, if something is not seen, it simply is not there.

Instead, endometriosis exists and it hurts, so bad, too bad. Physical and moral evil. An evil that slowly annihilates, day after day, month after month, year after year.

An evil that wipes out lives, dreams, projects, hopes. An illness that takes your breath away.

I rebelled against this silence and with me hundreds and hundreds of women who have chosen the bravest path: to put their face on it.

It is not easy to expose yourself, to tell about your wounds in the body and soul, to show your scars. Yet we did it, regardless of the judgments of those who continue to underestimate this pathology, of those who continue to laugh, of those who say: "For you endometriosis is a disease, not for me! Take a pill and go to work", "Endometriosis is the stupidest disease that exists. Money is wasted on research", “You take this disease a little too seriously”.

There will always be Carmen Di Pietro, pseudo "doctors" without empathy, employers for whom if you get sick you are fired; but now we will be there to answer, to destroy their stupid ignorant beliefs.

Nobody will close our mouths.

An appeal by an unknown woman (myself) was enough to collect, in less than three hours, more than 400 photos of women who have decided to say ENOUGH.

"The beauty of women is that they are afraid but in the end they have the courage to do everything"

Endometriosis is a chronic disease that affects about three million women in Italy.

There is no cure.

Let's break the silence 🎗

THE VOICE OF ONE IS THE VOICE OF ALL

(I thank all the women who have decided to put their faces on it, the girls who have lent themselves to build the collage and I apologize for those who do not appear in this but it was very difficult. We have collected a lot of photos and it would be wonderful to be able to assemble a video)

On this Thanksgiving, we want to share our genuine

On this Thanksgiving, we want to share our genuine appreciation for you. We wouldn’t be where we are today without you!

While this year may look different, we hope your day is filled with love and gratitude.

AMA PRESS RELEASE HIGHLIGHTING DR. CAMRAN NEZHAT'

AMA PRESS RELEASE HIGHLIGHTING
DR. CAMRAN NEZHAT'S DISTINGUISHED SERVICE AWARD

Just a note from all of us at EndoMarch HQ, to congratulate Dr. Camran Nezhat again for receiving the American Medical Association's highest award, the Distinguished Service Award, for inventing and pioneering video-assisted endoscopic surgery.

Dr. Nezhat was originally inspired to invent video-assisted endoscopic surgery to help his endometriosis patients in particular, whose only surgical treatment option in the past used to be the 'hip bone to hip bone' large laparotomy incisions, which were not only extremely painful, taking several weeks to recover from, but were also associated with increased rates of morbidity and mortality. As such, Dr. Nezhat dedicated the award to his patients and all Endometriosis warriors from around the world, who allowed him the privilege to participate in their advocacy and/or care.

Please join us in congratulating Dr. Camran Nezhat

Please join us in congratulating Dr. Camran Nezhat for receiving the 2020 Distinguished Service Award from the American Medical Association for his meritorious service in the science and art of medicine. Dr. Nezhat has been called the father of modern-day surgery for inventing and pioneering video surgery. Early on, he advocated and proved that the majority of the open procedures of the time could be performed via video laparoscopy. By doing so, he opened the door for surgeons all over the world to advance the field of minimally-invasive surgery and help their patients. The award will be presented Friday, November 13th at the AMA’s Interim Meeting.
