Endometriosis Awareness Month

Endometriosis, a condition affecting millions of women globally, often remains veiled in mystery and misconceptions. Endometriosis Awareness Month seeks to dispel the shadows, bringing knowledge, support, and understanding to the forefront. Dive with us into this transformative month of reflection and advocacy.

What is Endometriosis Awareness Month?

Endometriosis Awareness Month is a dedicated observance aimed at raising global awareness about endometriosis—a condition where tissue similar to the lining of the uterus grows outside the uterus. It’s a time for educating communities about the symptoms, challenges, and available treatments for those affected by this condition. Moreover, it’s a rallying cry to support research efforts and improve the quality of life for those living with endometriosis.

When is Endometriosis Awareness Month?

Every March, advocates, healthcare professionals, and affected individuals come together, making it a month of intensive outreach, learning, and support centred around endometriosis.

History of the Event

Endometriosis Awareness Month has its roots in grassroots movements initiated by affected individuals and supportive healthcare professionals. Recognising the widespread nature of the condition and the lack of comprehensive understanding, they set out to establish a month-long observance. Over the years, it has grown, drawing international attention and fostering a global community of support, research, and hope.
