The NDWRH Student Committee is a student-led committee comprised of DPhil and MSc by Research students, as well as a representative from the MSc in Clinical Embryology.
\n \n\n \n \nIn this special extra podcast episode of Royal Institution Science Podcast, PhD student in NDWRH and Digital Intern at RI, Madga Mareckova, sits down with her PhD supervisors, Profs Krina Zondervan & Christian Becker to discuss endometriosis.
\n \n\n \n \nScientists at the Nuffield Department of Women's and Reproductive Health (University of Oxford), together with Endometriosis UK are investigating the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on people with endometriosis.

\n \n\n \n \nAll our research studies break down into a number of smaller research projects. These projects are supervised by academics within the Centre and the wider Department and are undertaken by postgraduate and postdoctoral researchers.
\n \n\n \n \nFibroids are non-cancerous growths that develop in or around the womb (uterus). The growths are made up of muscle and fibrous tissue, and vary in size. They're sometimes known as uterine myomas or leiomyomas. Many women are unaware they have fibroids because they don't have any symptoms.
\n \n\n \n \nIf you are suffering from endometriosis-associated symptoms then you probably should be treated. Treatment approaches ought to be tailored to your specific situation. Treatment breaks down into medical treatment and surgical treatment. All treatments should take into consideration whether you are currently trying to become pregnant or not.
\n \n\n \n \nStaff and students in the EndoCare Centre regularly do outreach and engagement work to improve the public's understanding of endometriosis and related issues and offer support to those affected by the disease.
\n \n\n \n \nThere are a number of patient organisations and useful websites that are available to offer information, guidance and support on endometriosis and issues related to pain in women, fertility and gynaecology in general.
