Empowering Latinas and Latines with Endometriosis

Nathali Zamora is a first-generation Salvadoran-Honduran Latina who passionately advocates for Latinas and Latine menstruating people living with endometriosis. After having been diagnosed at 21, her experience navigating the disease and intricate medical system lit a fire within her.

Weaved into Nathali’s understanding of endometriosis is also the knowledge of how isolating living with it can be. Armed with her background in Psychology, Nathali embarked on a research-driven mission to educate and support others grappling with the debilitating condition of endometriosis.

She recognized early on the power of self-advocacy and has dedicated herself to providing resources that empower everyone to make informed decisions about their healthcare.

Through her platform @endocipota, Nathali tirelessly works to bridge the cultural information gap, ensuring her followers have access to bilingual information. Her commitment to inclusivity is further demonstrated through her newsletter, The Chronic RBF, where she delves into the most pressing issues facing those living with endometriosis. 

Her advocacy work extends far beyond the digital space as she also has a support group called “Endocharlas: EndoAmigxs,” and hosts public screenings of endometriosis documentaries like "Below the Belt." She has participated at the Endometriosis Summit Espanol, a free educational conference for Spanish-speaking patients worldwide, where she shared her story alongside endometriosis experts.

For Nathali, there is only one clear path forward: a future where those living with endometriosis can be provided with the necessary support system and tools to better advocate for their needs.

Along with her plans for the future, Nathali is actively building a non-profit organization that will empower Latinas and Latine menstruating people with the necessary resources to help them manage all aspects of their condition.
