This season we’re documenting the health, wellness and lifetime outcomes of Latinas between the ages of 20 and 40. 29-year-old Mariela "Ella" Vazquez was diagnosed with endometriosis at an unusually young age, and figuring out how to understand and address her physical symptoms became a lifelong journey. Journalist Julia Binswanger reports on Ella's personal experience understanding her body and her pain, and investigates why it can take adult Latina women so many years to receive a correct diagnosis after the onset of symptoms.
