On ANZAC Day we acknowledge and thank those who have served and continue to serve.

They shall not grow old as we that are left grow old
Age shall not wear them
Nor the years condemn
At the going down of the sun
And in the morning
We will remember them
Lest we forget.

Could your period pain be something more?

For Endometriosis Month, we spoke to Gynaecologist Associate Professor Donald Angstetra who said severe period pain is often dismissed as “normal”, but it’s not something you should have to live with.

“Endometriosis affects around 1 in 7 women, yet many wait years for answers,” says Associate Professor Angstetra.

“If your pain is severe, persistent or getting worse, it’s worth speaking to your GP or a women’s health specialist for a referral to a gynaecologist who can properly investigate the cause.”

Signs to look out for:
- Pain that stops you from daily life
- Pain during or after s*x
- Heavy or irregular periods
- Bloating, fatigue or trouble falling pregnant

Associate Professor Angstetra says for too long, women have gone unheard.

“You deserve to find answers,” he says.

“You do not have to live with pain. A mix of lifestyle changes, medication and sometimes surgical intervention may give women back their quality of life.”
