Despite
the vast number of women and adolescents in the world suffering from
the
reproductive and immunological disease Endometriosis, the illness
remains
under-diagnosed, under-researched, under-funded and
under-treated.
There is still, as yet, no definitive cure.
This
site is not intended to suggest or replace medical advice given to you
by your doctor;
but rather, to educate and empower you to make your own best - informed
- decisions concerning your health. While currently incurable, it
is entirely possible to effectively manage Endometriosis and live well
in spite of the disease.
The keys to successfully battling
this painful disease include early diagnosis, effective treatment with
a true Endometriosis specialist (not
an OB-GYN generalist), the support of those who understand,
keeping abreast
of the latest information on the disease, and a positive outlook.

Are Some
Physicians Tainted
by Drug Company Ties? You bet your kickbacks they are!
A self-appointed
panel of "Endometriosis experts" dangerously touted pre-diagnosticGnRH
usage as an "effective treatment and diagnostic method for
Endometriosis"
in a recent edition of Fertility & Sterility. The ERC
challenged
this position, calling the recommendation "unethical," and questioned
the
presence of several Advisors to TAP (Lupron makers) on the panel - and
a marked absence of well-regarded Endometriosis experts. Read all about
it here.
NEW: Read part 2 of this continuing controversy, including a patient
preference
study, here. |
