ReInvent Healthcare Endometriosis Exposed: Beyond Reproductive Health and Into Whole-Body Wellness
In this episode of Reinvent Healthcare, Dr. Ritamarie Loscalzo and Dr. Jessica Drummond, founder of the Integrative Women’s Health Institute and author of Outsmart Endometriosis, expose a shocking reality: endometriosis is not just a “reproductive issue.” It’s a whole-body condition affecting millions, often misdiagnosed, and very much misunderstood. This silent epidemic is wreaking havoc on women’s lives—yet it goes undetected in countless cases.
With organs affected beyond the reproductive system, skyrocketing rates of chronic pain, infertility, and a myriad of related health problems, practitioners need to understand this under-the-radar crisis and know how to help clients who are suffering silently.
