Hi, my name is Erin Martin! I am 24 years old and in the Lockyer Valley. I work in Education with a Community Services background. I decided to join the QENDO team 5 years after my diagnosis of Endometriosis. I had experienced symptoms for 4 years prior to diagnosis, which was during an emergency appendectomy. Since then, I have received more diagnosis and these are all managed by a multi-disciplinary team. I am really passionate about women’s health issues and being able to access appropriate and timely support. 

Online communities provide a valuable space for support and information sharing for individuals dealing with endometriosis and pelvic pain. Our Group on Facebook offers a place for members to connect, share personal experiences, and access resources.

They can be particularly helpful for those seeking understanding and advice from others who are navigating similar health challenges.

Our Community emphasises privacy, respect, and mutual support, ensuring a safe environment for all participants.

We bring the community together throughout the year to increase education, support, awareness, understanding and learning how to manage our symptoms locally.
