Yup, my wife has it and it AMAZING how many doctors are ignorant about it. We literally had one doctor tell her she “probably didn’t have that, because Endo is a very complicated disease and blah blah blah”. Nevermind all the symptoms lining up and the fact her GRANDMA HAD IT.

Went to a specialist surgeon focusing on it and he did a quick exam and was like “yep you have it, it felt like you have rocks in your vagina”. It was THAT obvious and yet no other fucking gyno she saw before that point noticed anything! Like doctors, please listen to your lady patients, PLEASE!

I always like when they say, "that's rare so you don't have that" (in regards to any potential diagnosis, really)

It's like they forget that "rare" doesn't mean "inexistent"

Yeah, it just reminds me that not every doctor aced med school… someone had to be bottom of the class (while still technically passing).
