The Shallow Take? Endometriosis is just bad period pain...
But, really...
Endometriosis affects around 190 million people worldwide (World Health Organisation). In the UK, 1 in 10 women live with it (that's about 1.5 million people - Endometriosis UK). And yet, the average diagnosis still takes years.
Why? Because female pain has been ignored, minimised, and normalised for generations.
This week, we’re unpacking endometriosis: the symptoms, the stigma, the exhausting fight to be believed, and what life with endo actually looks like behind closed doors.
We’re diving into Phoebe's personal endo story, asking why the medical system still struggles to take women seriously, and what needs to change.
Is it really that deep? Yeah. It is.
Shallow Socials!
