Endo Books?

A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question 💭
Epsom, UK

Hello.

I want to talk to my youngest sister about endo. What sort of resources and books do you recommend? How would you start off?

I was thinking that a quick ten minute talk is enough for now. I will cover the basics of the disease as well. She is only five years old so I do not wish to overwhelm her however. Thanks in advance. Advice and tips will also be appreciated too. This will pave the way for further conversations.

Is it a good idea to use pictures or not?

You can try this comic, you can just skip over the wordy parts but some of the pictures might help. https://www.boredpanda.com/endometriosis-woman-...

That's a really good idea! It will hopefully support your relationship in the long-run for her to have more insight into what you experience day to day.

Nice picture by the way! Gorgeous smile :)

My daughter is nearly10.i gave her a talk briefly about periods because u wasn’t much older than she is when I first started mine.
I didn’t mention any complications that may occur, I think it might scare my daughter, I will explain possible complications when she has actually started her period, but every child is an individual, so you do what you think is best for her x
