[QUOTE="Intermittent_faster, post: 1852259, member: 413200"] Hi shelley324, I suffered with endometriosis from the age of 25 til menopause hit and also had high blood pressure that started at the same time as the endo. It is only recently that I have come to the realisation that both these conditions were caused by insulin resistance and that the insulin resistance was caused by my change of lifestyle to consuming massive amounts of carbs in my early 20s. I lost and gained weight on low fat diets over the years but even when I was very slim I still had the hbp and endo. I now realise it was because I was still insulin resistant despite being slim. The changing point for me was when I discovered the high fat low carb diet. Ok, it was too late as far as the endo is concerned as I was well into menopause by then and had been through multiple surgeries, losing an ovary in the process but the reason I went on the low carb diet was to lose weight. It was only when my blood pressure normalised that I started doing more research and started to realise that the endo and hbp were caused by insulin resistance and that the low carb diet had made me more insulin sensitive. I would urge you to start eating low carb high fat and progress on to keto which is a more extreme version of low carb. Look on youtube at Dr Eric Berg's channel. He has so much information in bite sized pieces. Once you start researching keto you will find LOTS of info out there. Good luck in your journey towards renewed health! [/QUOTE]
