Abstract

Women are historically given subpar sexual healthcare in comparison to their male counterparts. This is especially true in the case of endometriosis, a disease that takes years on average to diagnose, and even longer to treat. This paper addresses the social, financial, and emotional burdens placed upon women with this disease and analyzes the structural issues that allows them to continue.
