The wrong definition perpetuates the use of medications that fail us. If we perpetuate the myth that Endometriosis is "misplaced uterine lining," then people get the idea that medications that suppress periods can treat Endometriosis.#endometriosis #MedTwitter

Hormonal suppression is not the answer.

Teenage endo: This was a case of an 18year old with severe dysmenorrhea and bowel symptoms since a few years who was bounced from doctor to doctor and put on hormonal suppression since the age of 16. Of course she was also told to get married soon and start popping out babies

When I talk about #PelvicPain and #PainGenerators, I frequently say that #adenomyosis is the sister to #endometriosis. This patient had endo/adeno with obliteration of her posterior cul de sac. Don't forget to think about all potential sources of pain! #AdenomyosisAwarenessMonth

We know Elagolix (Orilissa) was the newest Oral med prescribed for Endometriosisis pain in 2018. Relugolix and Linzagolix are being produced by Myovant and ObsEva. All three of these drugs are oral GnRH Antagonists. None treat Endometriosis.

Replying to @jjfitzgeraldMD @vagisil
@jfitzgeraldMD this whole OMV Vagisil fiasco is just the latest and infuriating. As you know, before #COVID my work was in Pelvic Health. I actually wrote a proposal to @FPMRS to assess baseline knowledge base of clinicians and lubricants. @DrJenGunter @dramypark @MamaDoctorJones

Can #obgyntwitter please participate in a Twitter movement to get @acog to include clitoral innervation in their general OB/GYN curriculum? They say it “doesn’t fit.” Please help prevent harm to #women by advocating for this anatomy to be taught. #MedTwitter #patientsafety
