Overcoming Gynecologic Pain and Creating the Aziza Project
Show Notes

In this episode of "Casa de Confidence," host Julie interviews Stephanie, the founder of the Aziza Project. Stephanie shares her long struggle with gynecologic pain, which went undiagnosed by numerous medical practitioners until she met Dr. Corey Babb at the Haven Center. Stephanie's conditions included endometriosis, adenomyosis, and endosalpingiosis, which caused significant pain and affected her life and ability to work.

 After successful treatment, she founded the Aziza Project to provide other women with access to quality medical care, funding for travel and procedures, and support. They discuss the project's goals, including raising $20,000 for 2024 to sponsor treatments for conditions like vaginismus and to support women's mental and physical health.

 Stephanie emphasizes the importance of advocating for one's health and the need for more gynecological specialists. The Aziza Project seeks donations and business sponsorships to help more patients and plans to offer scholarships for medical students specializing in complex gynecological care.

Understanding Gynecologic Conditions
During our conversation, Stephanie educated us on the various conditions she faced, including endometriosis, adenomyosis, and endosalpingiosis. Each condition brought its own set of challenges and pain, impacting her ability to contribute to her family's finances and overall quality of life.


The Path to Diagnosis and Treatment
Stephanie's path to diagnosis was fraught with missteps and frustration. It wasn't until she found an endometriosis excision specialist that she began to see a light at the end of the tunnel. The specialist's approach to excising endometriosis by the roots offered her an 80% chance of non-recurrence, a significant improvement over previous treatments.


The Aziza Project's Vision and Impact
The Aziza Project isn't just about financial assistance; it's about creating a ripple effect of education, advocacy, and support. Stephanie envisions a future where every woman has access to a vaginal specialist within a reasonable distance, where no one has to travel across the country for proper care.
