Researchers suggest that following diagnosis, women may be taking lower-paid jobs or working fewer hours.The charity Endometriosis UK called on workplaces to provide "support, understanding and reasonable adjustments for endometriosis" in order to "retain talented employees".

A government spokesperson said they were "committed to delivering the healthcare women need, when they need it, so that everyone can lead healthy, productive lives".The Office for National Statistics (ONS) has for the first time looked at the impact endometriosis has on labour market outcomes in England.Endometriosis is where tissue similar to the lining of the womb grows outside it, sometimes causing debilitating symptoms. The disease can cause women to leave, or change, their jobs.

By studying anonymised official medical and payroll data of more than 55,000 women, a decrease in monthly earnings was found among those aged between 25 and 54 in England, after they received a diagnosis of endometriosis in an NHS hospital.Among those in paid work, there was an average decrease of £56 per month in the four to five years post-diagnosis, compared with the two-year period before learning of their condition.

The research also found the probability of being a paid employee "significantly decreased" after an endometriosis diagnosis, going down by 2.7 percentage points four to five years after diagnosis.

Emily Jones was 11 when she first felt her endometriosis symptoms. She experienced extremely painful periods that caused her to vomit and faint.She added Lexi was "shaken in a way that was rough, unnecessary, violent and caused her brain to start bleeding".

"The prosecution don't suggest that either Melissa Wilband or Jack Wheeler intended to kill Lexi or wanted to cause her serious harm," she told the court.Ms Osborne said it would have been clear to the person inflicting the injuries to Lexi that "some harm would be caused by their actions", and there was evidence that the incident "was not the first time Lexi had been shaken".

Ms Wilband and Mr Wheeler had been in a relationship for about three years but separated for several months when she became pregnant with another man in early 2019.In court on Tuesday, they were described as "regular cocaine users" and that Ms Wilband told Mr Wheeler throughout the pregnancy that he was the biological father, despite knowing this not to be the case, Ms Osborne said.
