Fact or Myth? Endometriosis can be prevented

MYTH!

The Endometriosis Research Center (ERC) writes:
“There is no current manner of preventing Endometriosis, and it is not a disease which is “contracted” or “caused” by anything the patient did – nor is it contagious. It is, however, highly suspected to be genetic.”

This proves that if we are born with the condition, we cannot prevent it. Read the entire study and findings from the New England Journal of Medicine.
