My journey with endometriosis · Layla Metcalfe
The Art Of Listening To Your Body - A podcast by Jin Ong
Categories:
My guest today Layla Metcalfe is a Naturopath dedicated to helping women with endometriosis. Of course, this is her pain story, which thankfully didn’t go on for the typical 7 years before getting diagnosed. At times her life was put on hold because of her dodgy period and symptoms. Periods so heavy that super tampons and a pad weren’t enough, often waking up to something that resembled a murder scene. Layla found herself on morphine based drugs, experiencing anxiety and depression, being told she was a hypochondriac and that she’d be infertile. A host of therapies, therapists, surgery and a $20k loan she burnt through in 1 year in search for a solution, she is now symptom free… and pregnant!!
