Try Everything Once

Get online: "Having a chronic illness can be super isolating and quite often you'll feel like the only person facing all these issues, but getting online and speaking to other women, helping them and getting the same in return has been the best support system I could have ever wished for."

Pace yourself: "Take a few minutes out of whatever you are doing to have a little rest. You aren't a superwoman and you can't do everything at once and that's perfectly okay." This is a tip everyone needs to remember once in a while.

Try everything once: "We all have our doubts from time to time over the treatment options we are offered by our healthcare providers. Remember, just because it didn't work for one person doesn't mean it won't work for you!"

Rethink that coffee and wine: "Try to cut back on caffeine and alcohol as much as possible. A boring one I'm afraid, but alcohol always made my endo angry!"
