Hi,

This might be a bit odd but anyway i saw an article today that said it’s more common in tall girls so I was wondering if it’s true.

Im 6ft how tall is everyone else? Xx

I'm 5ft 5. I don't think I'd be classed as tall. I know someone else with endo who is tiny- must only be about 5ft!

I'm 5"6 so not particularly tall. The only two people I know with endo are shorter than me one is around 5"3 and the other Tiny around 4 foot something I tower over her lol.

I'm 5'1, stage 3. The women in my family are usually around 5'1 (even if the father or partner is 6'1 or taller). Endo seems to be passed on between generations too.

Just read the study and it says it’s related to a low BMI when younger so the risk factor isn’t just confined to being tall

I am 5ft 6in, so not that tall. It could be a biased view.

I am just 5’2 but was quite underweight as a child, they did mention that could be a factor too. x
