March is Endometriosis Awareness Month ❤️
So let’s do some myth busting! This is a condition that has been poorly understood for a very long time. With those assigned female at birth experiencing terrible pain, related to or around their cycle, often dismissed and told that period pain is normal, and to just continue on with life.
1 in 7 Australian people assigned female at birth have endometriosis, and it still takes approximately 7 years to be diagnosed.
And one thing that very commonly goes hand in hand with Endo, is pelvic floor dysfunction, nervous system dysregulation and pain sensitization… all of which can be supported by pelvic physiotherapy to help treat and manage many of the pain, bladder, bowel and s€xual health symptoms that can arise.
At beaches pelvic physio we love working with Endo clients 1:1 and have pelvic pain exercises classes online to also support you from home.
If you or a family member need support, please reach out, we are here to help ❤️
