Endometriosis is the most common disease that no one really understands. Every year, countless women are forced to leave careers they love, abandon dreams of having children, watch their personal relationships suffer and live in unspeakable pain. We spoke with filmmaker Shannon Cohn about her documentary Endo What and discussed the following:
1.What is Endometriosis? How common is it? Symptoms? Risk Factors?
2. Shannon’s journey. Why she created a film & how it’s been received.
3. What are some common misconceptions about endo?
4. What are some of the medical ways of treating endo?
5. Advice for anyone experiencing symptoms?
6. Where should they go for accurate information?
Shannon Cohn, JD, is a filmmaker, lawyer and activist. Her work has appeared on PBS, Nat Geo and Discovery Channel in over 70 countries around the world. She produced and directed Endo What, a feature documentary on endometriosis hailed as "film of the year" by The Guardian and "the first step in a plan for change" by Newsweek. Her upcoming film, Below the Belt, which approaches endometriosis as a social justice issue, will premiere in 2022. Before becoming a filmmaker, Shannon practiced international law and was part of the legal team that prosecuted Enron. Shannon is a Board Member of the Foundation of AAGL (American Association of Gynecologic Laparoscopists) and All Kings, a New York-based non-profit dedicated to empowering people affected by the criminal justice system.
