Endometriosis is a painful condition that affects more than 1 in 10 women and unknown numbers of transgender and gender diverse people.  It can be challenging to receive timely diagnosis, and people can often go years without effective treatment.  One of the hallmark symptoms of endometriosis, although not always present, is painful sex.  Dr. Bridge-Cook discusses endometriosis in general, as well as the specifics of endo-related sexual pain.
