@BBCRajiniV Hi Rajini - just wanted to say I thought your broadcast when you discussed endometriosis was so touching. I know I’m a man but I wanted to share how brilliant I thought it was. ā€˜I literally feel your pain’ is still ringing in my ears (in the most positive way!).

A year ago I didn’t even know what endometriosis was - now I’m taking part in a scientific research project with the University of Edinburgh as an ambassador, to help find out more about this chronic, painful condition. If you’re a sufferer and want to get involved info here šŸ‘‡šŸ½.

It was an absolute pleasure to meet up with some of our southerly ambassadors in London last night to get inspired for next steps. We’re excited to keep pushing the ENDO1000 project towards our goal of raising Ā£1M to fund this crucial research #endometriosis #1in10 #talkendo

Delighted to speak on air to my friend and colleague, the fabulous @Azadeh_Moshiri who is now BBC Pakistan correspondent, minding the patch for the equally wonderful @caroline_gm_d. South Asia is such a warm and magical place. Enjoy your journey!

Back after time off, as I recovered from #endometriosis surgery. It’ll help but won’t remove all the pain as no one quite knows what causes endo. Sharing to raise awareness - yesterday in parliament a minister said: ā€œwomen with endometriosis have been failed for far too longā€.

Former US President Jimmy Carter has died. A one term president, who faced challenges inc the Iran hostage crisis - he’ll be remembered for what he achieved AFTER leaving office as much as what he did in the White House. I met him briefly in 2014, he was charming and friendly.

'Medical misogyny' is leaving women in unnecessary pain and undiagnosed for years. Read our report on women's reproductive health conditions.

I’ve sat in the chair or been on the road in immense pain. I’ve seen doctors in the UK, US and India yet it took so long for it to be diagnosed. So many women with endometriosis are gaslit and ignored. I feel thankful to @JoelNaftalin for being a doctor who took it seriously.
