Amy Schumer shares story of having uterus, appendix removed to treat endometriosis: 'I'm feeling really hopeful and I am really glad that I did it, and I think it's going to change my life.'
She said she wanted to share the story to raise awareness, because"so many people don't even know the word 'endometriosis.'"a condition afflicting 1 in 10 women, as well as trans and nonbinary people with uteruses"When I get a helpful female tidbit I like to pass it on to my sisters," Schumer said.
In the chronic and sometimes debilitating ailment, tissue from the uterus spreads outside its walls. The tissue can sometimes spread to other organs, causing pelvic pain and bleeding, particularly around periods. In some cases, endometriosis can cause infertility.
