#153: Understanding Endometriosis: Symptoms, Diagnosis, and Holistic Management with Emma Berry

Endometriosis is a super common condition, affecting 1 in 9 women, yet it often takes an average of 7 years to get a diagnosis. Which means so many women are left suffering with often debilitating symptoms for far too long. That's why it's crucial to talk about endo and raise awareness.

In this episode of the podcast, we’re chatting with Emma Berry, an Osteopath who not only supports women with endo in her work but also has personal experience with the condition.

Here’s what we cover in the episode:

• The most common symptoms associated with endometriosis, including some that you wouldn’t expect

• The diagnostic process, and why so many women go undiagnosed

• Emma’s personal experience having a laparoscopy and what her recovery looked like post-surgery, and how her symptoms have changed after the procedure

• The lifestyle practices that helped Emma significantly reduce her symptoms

• We also dive into osteopathy, and how it Emma uses it to support women with endometriosis in managing their symptoms and improving their overall quality of life
