We invite you to follow us on instagram and Facebook to watch the educational reels and to share our post to continue to create awareness & education around endometriosis. Please post comments and if you attended our movie screening, please share your comments about the movie .

The highly anticipated documentary, “Below the Belt,” was screened in Vancouver on Wednesday, April 19th. (sold out)

The film follows the personal and inspiring stories of four patients urgently searching for answers to mysterious symptoms and exposes widespread problems in our healthcare systems.

Through the lens of endometriosis, a disease that affects 1 in 9 women, the film shows how women are often dismissed, discounted & disbelieved. From societal taboos and gender bias to ineffective drugs and surgeries, women are erroneously told that pregnancy and hysterectomy are cures. Nearly 50% of infertility cases are due to endometriosis and almost all are preventable. This film reveals how millions are effectively silenced and how, by fighting back, they can improve healthcare for everyone.

The screening was followed by a Q&A panel with several specialists:

There has been great interest in the screening of the highly anticipated documentary, “Below the Belt”, which is important to us because one of our goals is to create more awareness about endometriosis and its management.

This film is a powerful exposé on the challenges faced by women with endometriosis and the uphill battles they encounter within our healthcare systems. It’s an inspiring and personal account that sheds light on the widespread problems that plague our healthcare systems.

And, after the screening, we’re hosting a Q&A panel featuring several specialists who will answer your burning questions and provide more information about the film and the issue of endometriosis.

We invite you to join our waitlist as there’s a chance additional tickets may become available.  

We are also planning a zoom event with our panelist.  So join the waitlist and we will contact you once we have a date and time scheduled so you can join and ask Q&A with the panelist.

“I have to confess, as an endometriosis surgeon spending all my working hours listening to endometriosis
patients and hearing their stories, I didn’t expect to learn anything new from a movie on endometriosis. I
was wrong. ‘Below the Belt’ is a movie for everyone. Not just endometriosis patients or people around
them. Not just GPs [general practitioners], not just policymakers. Everyone.”
