2:29Now PlayingWomen in the UK are waiting almost nine years for an endometriosis diagnosis, according to research that found many women are "dismissed, ignored and belittled".
The study by the charity Endometriosis UK found waiting times for the condition to be formally identified have significantly deteriorated since the pandemic, increasing to an average of eight years and 10 months - up 10 months since 2020.
Sky's Shaaman Freeman-Powell speaks to Sanchia Alasia who describes living with the condition.
