Talking Endometriosis with Gynaecologist Dr Acton

Endometriosis is a chronic condition that many women are diagnosed with globally. In fact, it is estimated that 1 in 10 women of reproductive age suffer from this condition. So what is endometriosis? Why do we get it? What are the signs and symptoms of endometriosis? Can young girls suffer endometriosis? And what can you do about it if you are diagnosed? Can you still have children if you have endometriosis? All these questions and more are discussed when I speak with Dr Jade Acton who is a Gynaecologist and Ages Advanced Laparoscopic Surgeon at St John of God Hospital in Subiaco.
