There is a strong correlation with hormones. It’s in the post.

“endometriosis is also found in men with a total of 16 cases previously reported in the literature”

I don’t think this is enough to affect funding.

I have no doubt women’s issues are often poorly diagnosed/treated —- men’s health is also treated poorly and we don’t even have a dedicated medical specialty.

(I don’t consider low-T clinics as “healthcare”)

Nope. Read the article! It's good.

> what if Men got this disease... the law would change quickly!

Honestly I've always thought this line of argumentation is dumb. Pregnancy is complicated, we don't understand it, and there are obvious ethical problems studying pregnant women.

There are many syndromes that affect men and women we similarly know little about.

The body is complicated. We shouldn't attribute to malice what is best explained by lack of knowledge

Endometriosis is the presence of endometrial like tissue outside the uterus. Male cells retain the ability to transform into endometrial cells given the right stimulus. In rare pathological cases, this happens.
