As a woman living with Stage 4 endometriosis, I need timely care, accountability and meaningful action.

I need our national charity backing the women asking uncomfortable questions. All the women, including those who challenge how we are represented.

Our call for a National Endometriosis Inquiry began in March 2024. Patients deserve answers about delayed diagnoses, conflicting medical reports, barriers to specialist care and the impact on our fertility, housing, livelihoods and families.

We need trauma-informed healthcare and patient organisations that listen and respond when concerns are raised.

I have written about why this matters to me. Read my article here:

Please also sign and share our petition on Uplift, even if you have already signed on Change.org:

Thank you to everyone who continues to support this campaign. Please share both links with your friends, family and networks.

Women have spent decades explaining what is happening to us. We need those with the power to change it to act.
