The 2025 Assembly Joint Resolution 13 proposes to designate the month of March as Endosalpingiosis Awareness Month in Wisconsin. Endosalpingiosis is a rare condition primarily affecting women aged 20 to 49, characterized by the presence of tubal epithelium outside the fallopian tubes. The resolution highlights the challenges faced by patients, including difficulty in diagnosis, lack of specialized medical professionals, and the absence of a known cure or effective treatment. Common symptoms include pelvic pain, infertility, and menstrual irregularities, which can lead to significant distress and uncertainty for those affected.
The resolution emphasizes the importance of raising awareness and educating the public about Endosalpingiosis to support patients and their families. It acknowledges the efforts of nonprofit organizations, such as the Endosalpingiosis Foundation, in providing support and advocating for research funding. By designating March as Endosalpingiosis Awareness Month, the resolution aims to encourage Wisconsin residents to learn more about the condition and enhance the resources available for those impacted by it.
