On Friday, we find our meeting “All sex explains”. Today we talk about endometriosis with Fanny Robin. This librarian and writer has just published In roommate with endometriosis by Kiwi editions. She talks about her daily life with this chronic illness that affects one in ten women, including actress Laëtitia Milot and journalist Enora Malagré.

This disease is characterized by tissues of the uterus that develop outside of it. They then cause lesions, adhesions and ovarian cysts.

Women with endometriosis may experience severe pain during menstruation, suffer during intercourse or have difficulty procreating.

Back to Fanny, called to Saint ‐ Nazaire. She describes in particular in her book the report to the medical profession, the gynecological violence that she suffered. But also the reappropriation of his body and the couple's communication in the face of an illness that disturbs intimacy. To listen to this interview with Fanny, it's as simple as a click in the audio player above.
