    Happy to see Endometriosis is finally receiving TV coverage. It’s an awfully painful condition not taken serious enough, with many people unaware of this condition. I hope more coverage will continue and bring Endometriosis to light.

    Thank you Bindi for bringing this to the light. Unfortunately there was nothing like that in the 1980s when I was suffering with endometriosis. In fact they commonly said "it is all in your head."

    I am so glad you were able to find someone that could help you. My daughter's had gotten so bad we ended up with ambulance calls. But finally a provider took the time and diagnosed all that was going on. Lucky enough to have a cancer surgeon preform the delicate surgery and it had been five years for her free of pain. Great health to you.

    Finally someone is talking about it! I had my endo surgery, after waiting for a whole year because it’s not considered “urgent”!

    I was fold at 11 that period pain in NORMAL. I am 34 now and have just been diagnosed with Adenomyosis and Endometriosis. I have fought a long battle to have my voice and my concerns heard. DOCTORS NEED TO START LISTENING when we come with concerns.

    My Endo has gotten worse in the past two years and so far can't have kids even with IVF. I'm hoping to get excision surgery soon, but even surgery is not a cure. Also endo causes so many side effects and other problems. It's definitely not just pelvic pain.

    Thanks Bindi! Maybe because you are more of a celebrity maybe Doctors will start to listen. I'm a retired nurse and I've never been able to find a Doctor (Male or Female) that would listen to me. I suffered with the pain, difficulty getting pregnant and the age old reaction from all these Doctors of the reason I had pain with menstruations and the difficulty getting pregnant was "Oh, your fat." I finally had a total hysterectomy and now am free of that problem.

    I'm very glad to hear her speak out about it. It took me over a decade of unbearable pain and being a human pin cushion before I was told at 27 what I had been through wasn't normal because I had endometriosis. Sadly, it would take 8 more years to her a hysterectomy.

    I can’t even have the surgery yet because I am a single mom and I don’t have 6 weeks to recover. I also have adenomyosis and I would require a full hysterectomy with ovaries removed as well. I’m glad this is getting media attention.

    As usual, Bindi is so privileged and blessed in ways that normal people will never know. Lots of people have parents who die young but they aren't given the world on a golden plate in exchange for their parent's absence. Endometriosis, uterine fibroids or PCOS are tougher to deal with when you don't have worldwide love and support, no family to care about you, and no spouse to hold your hand (or worse, an abusive spouse who thinks you're faking your pain). Regular people deal with going into debt or not having a surgery at all, or suffering in silence. Most women are robbed of their fertility, yet Bindi has one beautiful baby. Talk to women who have lost their jobs or are fighting with the pathetic healthcare system in fighting these miserable illnesses, rather than someone who gets to recover while living in a peaceful, beautiful zoo.

      She is just telling her experiences to help raise awareness. Don't need to be sour about it and attack. Not kind at all.

    • @sabrinakirchner242

      I say this with the utmost respect and kindness, so please forgive me if I come off as rude.
      Yes, Bindi has a lot of privilege and many blessings in her life, which most people will never have. There are many women out there who have had to suffer through this on their own in far more challenging circumstances and they deserve to have their voices heard.
      But how many of them have the platform to make people listen that Bindi does? I’m not saying Bindi needs to be praised to the high heavens for this, but her speaking out has made many women feel less alone and has caused many more to be aware of a disease that they never knew about.
      You don’t have to like her or praise her, she’s got far more than enough people who do that already. But that doesn’t mean that you get to be rude about a complete stranger’s pain, no matter how easy she has it otherwise.

    • @theresistance3818
      @theresistance3818 Год назад

      Bindi is trying to give women, like myself + many others, credibility when it comes to being heard + believed.
      I thoroughly relate to your comment but when it comes to this disease, women are repeatedly being ignored + gas-lit by their "trusted" family, friends, + medical professionals - a lot of these willfully ignorant individuals will refuse to pay their suffering loved one or patient any mind until someone with a high-profile + a platform comes out + speaks on their experience with this disease.
      We need all the help that we can get from everyone + everywhere 🫶

      @@sabrinakirchner242give this lady some grace. She’s just bitter from the pain. Sometimes when my pain is taking over I can be bitter too but then come around. It’s hard 😢
