Endometriosis should be taught in high school to not just female but also male. This will have the ability to raise as much awareness as possible.
Having endometriosis taught in high school will mean young women with have a broad knowledge and if they feel as though there periods are not normal they will know to get checked out this will help treat endometriosis at an earlier stage aswell. It will also help men as they will have the ability to learn what there potential partners may go through if they end up having a relationship with someone who has this disease.
