3: Endometriosis with Michelle Ackerley

When Zoe sat down to plan this series which focuses on health conditions full of misconceptions and misinformation, endometriosis had to be top of the list. It's as common as asthma, and yet an incredibly huge number of people haven't heard of the condition. Dr. Zoe is joined by TV broadcaster Michelle Ackerley to hear her journey to diagnosis and beyond. Later on in the episode, we welcome back Dr Sam Wild (who you met in the Menopause episode) to share her own lived and professional experience.
