Endometriosis: The Medical System’s Biggest Blind Spot With Dr. Liza Klassen, ND

Send us Fan MailToday, we’re diving into one of the most misunderstood, overlooked, and chronically dismissed conditions in women’s health: endometriosis.Endo is a full-body, chronic inflammatory disease that affects 1 in 10 women, yet it takes an average of 7 to 10 years to get diagnosed. Why? Because the system still doesn’t take women’s pain seriously AND most of us were never taught what endometriosis actually looks like.Today we have on Dr. Liza Klassen, a naturopathic doctor in British Columbia who is breaking all this down for us.So in this episode, we discuss the real signs of endo + the ones no one talks about: from GI issues and bladder pain to fatigue, anxiety, depression, and pain with intercourse. We get into why bloodwork won’t catch it, why ultrasounds can still miss it, and why diagnosis can require surgery.We also unpack the truth about estrogen and endo, the myth of “estrogen dominance,” fertility challenges, surgical pros and cons, and what the research actually supports when it comes to treatments like hormonal therapy, supplements, pelvic floor physio, nutrition, exercise, and more.If you’ve ever wondered whether your pain is “normal,” felt dismissed by your provider, or you’ve been searching for answers your whole life… this episode is for you. It’s validating, empowering, and full of the science you should’ve been taught years ago.Connect with Dr. Klassen below:Website is hereInstagram + more info on awe endometriosis focused program  is hereSHOP OUR MERCH HERE <3Don't forget to follow us on Instagram @girlsgonewellnesspodcast for updates and more wellness tips.
