Make endometriosis a disability and help us stop suffering!

Rejected 14 signatures

What the petition asks

Endometriosis devastates the lives of women and their families. We live in sereve chronic pain, constantly tired, and feeling unwell. We sit there not knowing whether we will be ok today or not. We sit here not know whether we can have children or not. Endometriosis will always always grow back.
Endometriosis is thinking tissue over the womb, ovaries, pelvis, bowels and all sensitive places in the female body. It's hard for us to work whilst suffering with endometriosis. I have personally lost jobs in the past due to this.
Endometriosis should be a disability and we should be offered a lot of support. We are limited! Not many people know what endometriosis is and it isn't right. Put the word out there please!
And help all is women who suffer
