Endometriosis Awareness Month takes place every March, shining a light on a condition that affects 1 in 10 women worldwide.

This month is dedicated to raising awareness about endometriosis, a chronic and often painful condition where tissue similar to the uterine lining grows outside the uterus. By spreading awareness, we aim to foster understanding, promote early diagnosis, and support effective management of this condition, which can profoundly affect women’s lives, fertility, and overall well-being.

Endometriosis remains surrounded by misconceptions and misinformation, often causing delays in diagnosis and treatment. Awareness campaigns throughout March are crucial in dismantling the stigmas associated with the condition, educating the public about its symptoms, and advocating for better healthcare support for those affected. This month is also an opportunity to honor the strength and resilience of women living with endometriosis and to advocate for advancements in research for more effective treatments.
