26 July 2018 - 700,000 Australian women are suffering from a debilitating condition and the federal government is finally taking steps to address it.
The disease is endometriosis, a condition where the tissue that normally lines the uterus grows outside it, often causing the sufferer excruciating pain.
Endometriosis currently has no known cure but the government has announced an extra $1 million will be pumped into a national action plan to combat it.
