Summary
In this week's episode, Dr. Mark is joined by clinical health and rehabilitation psychologist Dr. Laura Katz (co-founder of Endometriosis 360 and assistant professor at McMaster University) for a deeply honest conversation about endometriosis. Endometriosis affects roughly 1 in 10 women and girls of reproductive age, yet it is frequently minimized as "bad cramps" or a minor period issue. Dr. Katz breaks down the systemic load of living with this chronic condition, the psychological toll of multi-year diagnostic delays, and how the unpredictability of flare-ups reshapes intimacy, work, parenting, and everyday life.
