An earnest endeavor: Launch of Endometriosis Awareness and Support Group India #Endochampions


Hello everyone! I am Roma and this year I am championing the cause of spreading awareness and support around the less-known but life-disrupting disease of Endometriosis. I am a stage 4 endometriosis survivor who struggled with this whole-body inflammation for over thirteen years before getting a proper diagnosis/treatment and a crusader on a mission to let no other women silently suffer from this disease (1-2 in every 10 women suffer from it), offering them any support they need. 

Thus, I have launched Endometriosis Awareness and Support Group India with an earnest endeavor to lend an ear to any girl/woman struggling with period issues and be instrumental in getting them the right advice and medical help.

Personally, I feel, in India periods talks are still considered taboo and women tend to silently bear periods related pain and other complications. Unfortunately, they have been brought up like that. This group will be a safe place where they can anonymously or with their name post any query they seek a solution to and we will get them the best help. They can also dm me on Facebook, Instagram, or on my number directly.


Thus, in a nutshell, the aims of this group are: 


✔️to build a community of ENDO CHAMPIONS from amongst us to create awareness and support each other in our endometriosis journey and secure each others' physical as well as mental health


✔️to lend an ear to anyone in extreme menstrual pain and bleeding and be that friend who trusts them and knows what they are through(dm me for my mobile number and I will be personally there for you dear) along with everyone- else in the group


✔️to help them with timely diagnosis based on our own good and bad experiences


✔️to create detailed awareness around the symptoms and treatments available 


✔️Lifestyle and dietary changes advised which are saviors in endometriosis


✔️Getting worthy doctors, dieticians, and therapists on board for lives and guidance on patient queries


✔️creating a database hub of all the latest research on endometriosis


✔️Conducting online and offline meetups for the endometriosis community


Apart from this, any other support desired by any woman in India can be added to this list because that is our ultimate aim.

You too can become an #ENDOCHAMPION and help us spread awareness about this whole body inflammation by sharing our posts and connecting anyone in need to us. Trust me together we can make a big difference because this disease and its ignorance can be really harsh and as a patient, I have contemplated suicide several times and will like to save many others from the agony. You can join the support group by clicking here: Endometriosis Awareness and Support Group India

If not anything else just by letting them share their pain with us, we can soothe them. I will be grateful for any support I can get from you on this. You can read my EndoJourney here:

During April, I will pen several eye-opening posts about this disease. Kindly do keep sharing them so that more and more people are made aware of the available solutions for this otherwise nontreatable condition.
