“Filmmaking storytelling narratives can create large-scale social change.” - Shannon CohnLike many conditions that primarily affect women, endometriosis is a condition that still has more questions than answers. Conventional medicine tries hard to fit it into a one-size-fits-all box that can be treated with birth control pills and surgery, but in truth, it's highly individual. What works for one may not work for someone else, and the best path forward is through a transformative amount of research funding and radical new approaches to that research.Today, I'm excited to be joined by producer Shannon Cohn, who is behind the fantastic films “Endo What?” and “Below the Belt.” Shannon is a rockstar in endometriosis advocacy at the highest levels. She's not just education donors and large funders but also helping individuals share the lived experience of having endometriosis.In this conversation, we discuss challenges in advocacy and research, the need for a multidisciplinary approach, why systemic change is crucial, Shannon's endometriosis journey, her films' role in raising awareness and driving policy change, and more.As you listen, think about how you could get better care if you're managing endometriosis yourself. Also, check out some of Shannon's recent wins in advocating for better research funding and a more multidisciplinary approach to using this funding. I think you'll be inspired.Enjoy the episode, and let's innovate and integrate together!Learn more or watch the video version of this conversation at https://integrativewomenshealthinstitute.com/update-on-the-state-of-womens-health-research-with-shannon-cohn-producer-of-endo-what-and-below-the-belt/.Connect with me and access our entire platform at IntegrativeWomensHealthInstitute.com (https://integrativewomenshealthinstitute.com/).

The goal of 'Below the Belt' is to bring the discussion of endometriosis into the mainstream and inspire practical solutions to the challenges faced by those with the condition. The documentaries 'Endo What' and 'Below the Belt' have had an overwhelmingly positive reaction, with viewers feeling validated and grateful for the awareness they bring. Balancing sensitive subjects in documentaries can be challenging, but it is important to tell authentic stories that resonate with a wide audience. One of the biggest misconceptions about endometriosis is that it is a niche or rare condition when in reality it has a significant impact on individuals, their loved ones, and society as a whole. Aspiring filmmakers should trust their instincts and tell authentic stories, while also finding a good editor who can provide honest feedback. The goal of 'Below the Belt' is to bring the discussion of endometriosis into the mainstream and inspire practical solutions to the challenges faced by those with the condition.

Shannon Cohn, Documentary Producer, and Director has been broadcasted on PBS, Nat Geo, and Discovery Channel. Before becoming a filmmaker, she practiced international law and was part of the legal team who prosecuted Enron. Endometriosis is a disease where endometrial-like tissue forms outside of the uterus in other different parts of the body. Some of the symptoms include pelvic and abdominal pain, bloating, gastrointestinal issues, infertility, and many other symptoms and diagnoses. Shannon Cohn describes that all of the work comes from a personal place. She has endometriosis and has two young daughters with a seven-time increased risk of having the disease. At 16, Shannon experienced her first symptoms similar to GI symptoms. She did not hear the word endometriosis until 13 years later when at 29 years old she had ovarian cyst surgery and her doctor offhandedly made the diagnosis after in the post-op. Shannon felt terrified of the stats about how it affects fertility as it was part of her own personal wish to have children. She went back to her OB-GYN with complex questions and although she was a great obstetrician to her, she wasn't well-equipped to answer in-depth about the retraces and nor was she qualified to treat Endometriosis. Billions of dollars in the US each year are due to lost productivity, medical costs, and all of the things that physically the disease puts on. Why are people not recognizing it? It feels almost criminal. It could change the lives of so many people to get them the care they need sooner and improve their quality of life. Below the Belt is geared more towards highlighting social justice issues surrounding the diagnosis and as the name implies below the belt, implies that unfair treatment. Shannon wanted to make a film and tell a story of the disease and people highlighted who live with it to bring the story to mainstream audiences by making the content digestible and personal. “One way to do that is to highlight the social justice issues that this disease does raise. I say it's a perfect, awful storm of so many things like stigma and taboo. Historically with menstrual health or women's health conditions below the waist, below the belt, so to speak, is the gender bias in medicine, racial bias in medicine, which compounds the issue and informed consent.” Shannon speaks about a nurse at UCLA going to E.R., and the doctors weren't taking her seriously. She could feel like she wasn't being believed. So she started taking her boyfriend, who was a computer programmer, appointments with her to the E.R. with her because she found a market difference, that if he were there, they would listen to her more, and sometimes she would even let him speak for her on a health condition that was affecting her body. She happens to be an African-American woman and her boyfriend at the time was a white man. Shannon decided to examine that and shine a light on it to say that this is happening. “But it's not just one thing. We have to change national discourse or international discourse around the disease, break the taboos, talking about menstruation periods, endometriosis, and related conditions that historically have been, you know, wrapped in like a silence, basically, or whispered about that needs to change.” And it is changing. It all starts with awareness and shining a light on the issues so that people understand these are issues because it is holding back progress. When people understand and are aware of them, then we can all start working to change.

Just because it's considered normal does not mean it is healthy!   Millions of women live in pain because their endometriosis remains undiagnosed. Often, doctors ignore symptoms of bloating, constipation, anxiety, headaches, and abdominal pain, assuming that it is just hormonal or nothing “serious”.. Officially, 1 in 9 women are diagnosed with endometriosis, but experts suspect that as many as 1 in 4 women suffer from this silent disruptor.   Today, I welcome filmmaker and activist Shannon Cohn to discuss how endometriosis is disrupting the lives of millions of women and how women can advocate for better care.    In this episode, Shannon shares how she suffered for years before her diagnosis and how her experience inspired her film Endo What?, which laid the foundation of education for women to understand this disease. Her soon-to-be-released film, Below the Belt, is a call to action for healthcare providers and politicians to ensure women's symptoms are not ignored.  We have a Vancouver screening of her Movie on April 19th with more details found below.   Regardless of where you are in your journey, Shannon educates you on the warning signs and tips to advocate for your health. Join us as we explore how to balance Eastern and Western medicine to treat endometriosis.  Key Topics/Takeaways: The hard questions [3:00] Common symptoms [6:30] Normal does not mean healthy [9:40] Endometriosis is not just period pain [11:20] An East-to-West approach [12:45] Reaches homeostasis [17:20] Different treatments for different symptoms[20:40] Nourish the soil before you plant the seed [23:30] Supplements for inflammation [25:10] Finding balance in your body [31:00] Securing a qualified surgeon [35:30] Drive out blood stasis below the diaphragm formula [42:00] Low-level laser therapy for fertility  [45:00]  Download Our Top 10 Treatment Strategies for Endometriosis Join the expert panel for a Q&A at the Vancouver screening of the movie Below the Belt About Shannon Cohn: Shannon Cohn is an American documentarian and an advocate for women's health.

A new film, Below the Belt, directed by Shannon Cohn features four women with endometriosis. Shannon who previously directed Endo What joins Emma. New research from the Young Women's Trust paints a bleak picture for many young women as they come out of the pandemic and into the cost of living crisis, with young mums experiencing particular disadvantages. We hear from young mums Charlotte and Jyndi, and speak to Claire Reindorp CEO of the Young Woman's Trust. Rosie Kinchen found herself in despair after the birth of her second child. She was deeply depressed and the baby failed to thrive. After rescuing an ailing houseplant and experiencing an unexpected joy at the wilting aloe's recovery she started dragging herself out of the house to look at plants in supermarkets and garden centres. With the redoubtable botanical artist Marianne North as a guide Rosie comes to see her life, her work and her city through new eyes. The Ballast Seed is her memoir. One of the UK's worst modern disasters, it will soon be the fifth anniversary of the Grenfell Tower fire. Seventy-two people died. The artist Tuesday Greenidge is sewing a quilt the size of Grenfell Tower to "symbolise justice" for survivors and the people affected. The singer Sophie DeMasi was involved in a song called West Side Story which came out this year in honour of the anniversary. They join Emma to discuss how art can help in the aftermath of such tragedy.

The #WeMatterACOG protest will be taking place this Thursday 5th and Friday 6th in Washington DC, outside the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists and together, patients will demand that the ACOG address the endometriosis care crisis in America. You're invited to join the campaign, in person, online or by signing the petition. In this podcast, we talk about the poor standard of treatment and care for those with endometriosis, what needs to change and how patients can and are leading the way for better endometriosis care. Check out the show notes below to take part.   Let's get social! Come say hello on Instagram, Twitter and Facebook or sign up to my newsletter.   Show Notes: How to take part in the WeMatterACOG campaign Endometriosis Research Center Center for Endometriosis Care Endo What?
