Endometriosis 'like being stabbed' says TV star
The Traitor's star Elen Wyn said she has suffered pain like "barbed wire around her stomach" due to endometriosis.
Before her diagnosis, the 24-year-old from Anglesey was laughed at by a GP and told it was "just period pains".
Endometriosis, external is a condition that sees cells similar to those found in the lining of the womb growing elsewhere in the body, such as the bladder and bowel.
The Welsh government said it was spending £3m on a women's health hub in each health board by March 2026.
