Welcome to It’s Not Just A Period!


This week, Alexandra sits down with Bell Ribeiro-Addy, Labour MP for Clapham & Brixton Hill and Endometriosis warrior.


Bell chairs the All Parliamentary Group for Endometriosis and throughout her career has been a vocal champion for improving healthcare access, particularly in addressing racial and gender disparities in the system.


Bell shares her 5 year diagnosis journey which can only be described as a nightmare combination of medical gaslighting, misogyny and misdiagnosis. She battled the removal of vital medication, a botched laparoscopy and chronic pain that left her immobilised in hospital.
