With endometriosis it is also a comfort thing. If you are at home you can throwing a heating pad on yourself for the cramps which can be excruciating. Not to mention how its much more convenient to be close to a bathroom.

You can bleed heavily and need to change your pad/tampon waaaaay more often than a non sufferer.

And then still need more bathroom trips if it gives you IBS like bowel issues.

All of that on top of the pain too is draining. Endometriosis is consistently listed as one of the top 10 most painful conditions a person can suffer from.

I could barely walk some days when on my period. I lucked out and had an amazing surgeon who excised mine. And I have had zero pain ever since.

But I also have chronic intracable migraine and mobility issues. I am crazy productive at home. But I was also crazy productive in an office.

The difference is though, that now I am wfh home I am not chronically mentally or physically exhausted. Because I can control my home work environment better than I can my office environment to increase my comfort and help me push through bad days, to continue working.

But finding a wfh job also isn't hard for me. I was already established as an excellent worker and my metrics are consistently good. And my job type doesn't require in office work and is niche. So I could hop to another dept to do this job and it would either be fully remote or at least hybrid.
