Endometriosis impacts 1 in 10 women and those assigned female at birth in the UK, yet so many are still unaware of the condition and its impact.
For Endometriosis Action Month 2024, we’re focusing on raising vital awareness of the common symptoms of endometriosis. Improving general public awareness and understanding of the condition ensures that those experiencing symptoms, their friends and family and their healthcare team know to ask ‘could it be endometriosis?’, leading to more prompt diagnosis and access to care.
We’re taking action by…
- Raising our voices with governments and healthcare decision makers, asking them to take action drive change for those living with the condition and those who are yet to be diagnosed
- Highlighting your stories to improve understanding of the varied experiences of those living with the condition
- Sharing valuable information for those living with diagnosed or suspected endometriosis and their loved ones
- Connecting with employers to improve workplace support
- Fundraising to ensure we can continue and expand our vital support services
And more!
More details and ways for you to get involved will be shared in the coming weeks. We look forward to taking action together this March and beyond.
