Recap: Endometriosis Through the Ages

Endometriosis Weekly is on a break this week, but we won't leave you hanging

Our European adventure continues and this week we have decided to take a break from writing a fresh letter because we really wanted to give you something worth your time.

Best of All Time

Instead of a boring half hearted post, here’s a recap of some of our most loved editions over the past several weeks. When we first published them, we had no idea they would become so popular, which only goes to show that we have a lot to learn, still. Without much ado, let’s dive right in.

At Number 5 is Love Sex and Endometriosis

It took a rather humane view of the disease and dveled deep into how relationships were impacts in the aftermath of endometriosis. You can read it here

Next at number 4, The Genie Rules of Endometriosis

We always knew that we wanted to write about the constraints of a surgeon and this issue was a fun, tounge in cheek, and exciting dig at the topic. It’s a quick read and can be found on this link

At number 3 was The Unofficial Symptom Map of Endometriosis

An issue that discussed the confusing, and intriguing web of symptom - condition correlation, this issue sparked a lot of conversation internally, and drove us to think hard about how we can further formalise this correlation. As of now though, the map remains unofficial and can be found here.

Coming in close at number 2, The Sanjay Patel Classification of Adenomyosis

This has to be Mayflower’s most significant contribution to the field of Endometriosis Interna that has endeadered technology and time. We’ve since evolved into furthering the understanding of DIE in much deeper spaces of the pelvis, but this classification remains at the centre of how we’ve treated infertility and other utero-centric occurances of the disease. You can read it here

#1 🏆 is an issue called The Seven Sins of Surgery

The idea for this issue came out of an hour long discussion on what not to do in the middle of surgery and turns out this ended up getting the most reader attention amongst all our issues.

The Seven Sins of Surgery is a rather philosophical, yet relevant argument on all the mistakes that we’ve learnt from and the fraternity can avoid them. Like all our other stories, this edition, can be found here.

Next, week, we will meet again, with pictures from Iceland, and an exciting edition on port placement - traction and counter traction that found inspiration from the musical opera we saw here in Vienna.

That and much more next week!
