A Nottinghamshire woman with endometriosis who has been "forever going back to the doctors" since the age of 14 is now wanting to help others suffering from the condition. Jenni Johnson said she has been "fobbed off" by professionals throughout the years - but will not let the disease stop her.
Endometriosis is a condition where tissue similar to the lining of the womb grows in other places, such as the ovaries and fallopian tubes. Endometriosis, which is not curable, can affect women of any age, including teenagers.
Jenni, 35, is the support group leader for the Endometriosis UK charity in Nottinghamshire. The Mansfield resident spoke about why the group is important.
