What Is Endometriosis with Lauren Kornegay of EndoBlack
Episode 25
Wednesday, 17 February, 2021
This week we sit down with Lauren R. Kornegay, the founder of EndoBlack, a nonprofit organization that advocates for Black women affected by Endometriosis. We discuss: What is Endometriosis How is Endometriosis diagnosed What are the endometriosis symptoms How is endometriosis treated What causes endometriosis Lauren R. Kornegay was born in Washington, DC, and grew up in Oxon Hill, MD. She graduated from Morgan State University in Baltimore, MD, where she received her B.A. in Speech Communications. While at Morgan State University, she experienced a series of events that led her to a gynecologist in Baltimore, MD. In meeting her new gynecologist, she would be introduced to a disorder that was an unfamiliar disorder at the time —endometriosis. Diagnosed with endometriosis at the age of 20, Lauren experienced the pain, struggles, exhaustion, and confusion accompanying the disorder. She felt like there wasn’t anyone that looked like her that had been impacted by endometriosis that she could reach out and connect with. Having previously searched social media, websites, and other avenues, she knew something had to change. Her mother always told her, “If there’s a void, fill it, and if you want something done, do it yourself.” Instagram @IAMLAURENRENEE Instagram @endo_black Yo This Can't Be Life Podcast - Instagram @yothiscantbelife Facebook YoThisCantBeLife Twitter @YoThisCantBLife Website www.yothiscantbelife.com Of course, we are available for your listening pleasure on all the major platforms including Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher, and Google.
