Welcome to Endo Warriors Aotearoa
Supporting menstrual health, endometriosis awareness, and period equity across Aotearoa.
Endo Warriors Aotearoa is a registered New Zealand charity dedicated to improving menstrual health education, raising awareness of endometriosis, reducing period inequity, and ensuring everyone has access to the support and information they deserve.
We believe that knowledge is empowering, early recognition matters, and no one should have to navigate their health journey alone. Through education, advocacy, practical support, community connection, and collaboration, we're working towards a future where menstrual health is understood, endometriosis is recognised earlier, and everyone feels seen, heard, and supported.
What is Endometriosis?
Endometriosis is a chronic, whole body inflammatory condition where tissue similar to the lining of the uterus grows outside the uterus. These growths can cause inflammation, pain, scarring, and affect many areas of the body.
Although symptoms often become worse during menstruation, endometriosis is much more than a period condition. It can affect people every day of the month and have a significant impact on education, employment, relationships, fertility, mental wellbeing, and quality of life.
It is estimated that around 1 in 10 people assigned female at birth are living with endometriosis, yet many wait years for a diagnosis.
The good news is that education, awareness, and early recognition can help people seek support sooner.

Living Well with Endometriosis
& Menstrual Health

Whether you are living with endometriosis, experiencing difficult periods, supporting someone you care about, or wanting to learn more about menstrual health, we are here to help.

Periods, Pain & Real Talk
Education | Schools & Kura | Workplaces | Community | Menstrual Health | Endometriosis
Knowledge has the power to change lives.
Our free, evidence-informed education helps young people, schools, kura, workplaces and communities better understand periods, menstrual health, pain, endometriosis, PMS, PMDD, period products, and when symptoms may not be normal.
By helping people understand that endometriosis is a chronic, whole-body condition and not simply a period illness, we aim to reduce stigma, support earlier recognition, encourage people to seek help, and empower them to make informed decisions about their health.
Our sessions are inclusive, practical and interactive, with a strong focus on body literacy, self-advocacy, knowing what is normal and what is not normal, and creating safe spaces for honest kōrero.
Where funding allows, we may also provide free reusable period kits to help remove barriers to access and support dignity and wellbeing.
We currently deliver across Wellington and surrounding areas, with the goal of making Periods, Pain & Real Talk available throughout Aotearoa

Featured Community Exhibition
Now You See Me is a powerful photographic exhibition sharing the lived experiences of those affected by endometriosis through portraiture and personal storytelling. By making an often invisible condition visible, the exhibition creates space for understanding, empathy, and connection while challenging stigma and starting conversations that can inspire change.
It is more than an exhibition. It is a community storytelling project that honours lived experience and reminds people that endometriosis is real, complex, and deserving of recognition.
