You’ve probably heard at some point that endometriosis is a lifelong, progressive disease that only gets worse with time. But the research tells a very different (and far more hopeful) story.

In this episode, I’m joined by Katie Edmonds, author of Heal Endo, to break down decades of studies showing that endometriosis often stabilizes, regresses, or even resolves. We explore why symptoms don’t always reflect lesion behavior, how inflammation and the nervous system influence endo, and what this means for your healing.

This conversation will leave you feeling informed, empowered, and hopeful.

Highlights:

• The myth of inevitable progression
• What studies actually show about lesion behavior
• Why symptoms ≠ progression
• The role of inflammation, immunity, and the nervous system
• How lifestyle can support your body without obsession
