Myself and Paige will be walking the equivalent of a half marathon on the 27th of June. We have somebody very close to us who lives with the condition, meaning we see first hand the impact it can have on daily life. We wanted to raise money so we can help towards treatments and support for those living with endometriosis across the uk.
On average it takes 8 years to get a diagnosis, so hopefully with more of an understanding of the condition and it’s symptoms this can be reduced!
Endometriosis is a condition where tissue similar to the lining of the uterus (endometrium) grows outside the uterus, most often in the pelvis. This tissue can cause pain, inflammation, and scar tissue, affecting fertility. The condition affects about 1 in 10 women of reproductive age worldwide, and it's often diagnosed in women in their 20s and 30s.
Do you want to join us in making a difference? We’re raising money in aid of Endometriosis UK and every donation will help. Thank you in advance for your contribution to this cause that means so much to us.
