Natalie has previously spoken about endometriosis and the need for more attention to the condition. She said conversations around the condition should continue because many women struggle with it without enough support or understanding.

She also called for greater awareness, research and better healthcare for people seeking diagnosis and treatment. Natalie explained that more action was needed to address the challenges faced by women living with the condition.

“Endometriosis will continue taking from women unless we firmly speak about it. We need awareness, research, better healthcare, and action,” Natalie Githinji said.
