Medical Disclaimer

DO YOU ENDO is a publication rooted in the patient experience. While we occasionally feature articles written by or interviews with medical professionals, absolutely nothing on this site should be taken as professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment for your specific situation. What works for one person might not work for you. Always consult with a healthcare professional before changing your medications, trying a new treatment, or making health decisions.

Affiliate Link Disclaimer

We are deeply committed to keeping our stories unfiltered and accessible. To help keep this publication running, DO YOU ENDO sometimes uses affiliate links. This means if you click on a link for a product we recommend and make a purchase, we may earn a small commission at absolutely zero extra cost to you. We only recommend things we genuinely believe in.

Eating Disorder & Body Image Disclaimer

Managing endometriosis can affect your relationship with food and your body. We know that reading about restrictive symptom-management diets or weight fluctuations can be triggering for anyone struggling with or recovering from an eating disorder. Please protect your peace and step away from any article that feels unsafe for you to read. Your emotional well-being is more important than finishing a story.

If you need support, please reach out to the National Alliance for Eating Disorders helpline at 1-866-662-1235.

Fertility & Pregnancy Loss Disclaimer

Our community frequently shares unfiltered stories about infertility, family planning, and pregnancy loss. We know these topics carry profound grief and can be incredibly difficult to read depending on where you are in your own journey. Please navigate this space gently, take breaks, and prioritize your own emotional safety when engaging with these stories.

  • If you need support navigating infertility, you can call the RESOLVE National Infertility Association HelpLine at 1-866-668-2566.
  • If you need support after a miscarriage or pregnancy loss, you can reach the 24/7 Pregnancy Loss Support Hotline at 1-619-573-6515.
