Dear Hera, I’m a great believer in self-healing by changing my diet and exploring alternative healing practices. There are many types of diets and resources for this kind of information. When I had endometriosis in my mid thirties, I saw a doctor about my painful periods that were accompanied by passing big blood clots. At the time I was married but we rarely had orgasmic partnersex. The doctor recommended I get pregnant or go on the pill which simulates pregnancy to end the endometriosis. I rejected both ideas and got divorced instead. I also got my first electric vibrator and began to have regular orgasms by myself. Following that, I met a fabulous lover and I began to have regular orgasms with partnersex. My theory is that having orgasms plus eliminating dairy products and red meat, my endometriosis disappeared. Until you solve this problem, I would suggest not having partnersex if it’s painful. Get my book “Orgasms for Two” and learn all the other ways you can share sexual pleasures with your boyfriend. Betty
