Each fall, monarch butterflies begin their long migration. Fragile, yet determined.

This week, we honor the “Butterfly Children” living with Epidermolysis Bullosa (EB), a rare condition that makes skin as delicate as wings but hearts stronger than most.

Our community goal is to raise $50,000 during our Unstoppable Migration Week (Oct 25–31) to fund life-changing research and move us closer to cures.

💙 Watch Rowan’s story — a young girl living with EB whose courage inspires this campaign:

100% of your gift goes toward research. Fast, data-driven, family-guided.
Let's have an EB Awareness Week and fund a future with a cure!
DONATE NOW
Please consider making a tax deductible donation to support our work.

It began in silence, then came the courage to fly.Like monarchs starting their journey, Rowan and families living with EB move forward with fragile strength ...

Want to thank American Board of OB/GYN for making these articles required reading. I'm glad that more of my gynecology colleagues are learning about chronic pelvic pain and how we need to change our approach.

People ask me why I have success with treating chronic pelvic pain. I tell them that I consider myself a "regionalist" not a "specialist". Maybe it's time we incorporated that concept into our medical education.

How does endometriosis cause/contribute to infertility:

1. Abnormal perennial environment characterized by oxidative stress and higher concentrations of inflammatory cytokines effect s***m function (Meaning: constant inflammation affects how s***m move)
2. Abnormalities in oocyte cytoskeleton function
(Meaning: endometriosis can affect egg structure and function)
3. AMH is decreased in early stage endometriosis (Meaning: endometriosis may cause lowered egg count)
4. Tubal impact (scarring, blockage, etc.)
(Meaning: endometriosis can scar or block Fallopian tubes)

Cystectomy and Ablation Yield Comparable Pregnancy Rates, While Coagulation May Harm Fertility

Here in sunny, beautiful Halifax, Nova Scotia to meet with staff of IWK Endometriosis and Chronic Pelvic Pain clinic. Great to connect and collaborate with colleagues who share a similar philosophy with regard to treatment of these conditions. Looking forward to meeting up and working together in the future.
