RE: Endometriosis Awareness: Painful Periods Are Abnormal
This is encouraging, to be able to figure out your diet and lessen symptoms. I'm dealing with pcos and I find it really hard to just live most days. I wish like you, I can get my diet to a point where I know what's bad or not. It feels like I'm doing it all wrong most of the time.
There's not a lot of info to work with so I have to do trial and error. All I get most times is conflicting info on the internet about a pcos diet. Like soy for example, I have read it's bad for me, somewhere else I read it's good. My doctor doesn't give me valuable info either and I feel like I'm on my own. Sigh.
I'm also hopeful that since I'm in my 40s now, menstruation time will end soon. :)
Well, I hope so :) I was telling my mum recently that I suspect she had endometriosis all through her menstrual years. Menopause came late for her 🤭
So many doctors just ignore the effect of diet on health. Like they all just think that's some hippie crap and want you to take pills about everything. I mean, no pill shaming, there is real help from medicine for lots of people, but like ...I dunno, maybe there are also other things that help, dear doctor.
I have hope that it will end soon for me not only because of some scattered symptoms, but also because my mom had a surprise child at 40 and my grandmother did at 42. Usually a later surprise child is like, the body saying "it's gonna be over soon let's make one more while we still can!" LOL. But my mom had her hysterectomy soon after so I don't know for sure.
