Indian
American
cookbook
author
Padma
Lakshmi
is
battling
endometriosis,
an
painful
condition
which
is
one
of
the
top
three
causes
of
female
infertility.
"It's
a
silent
epidemic," the

According
to
her,
endometriosis
can
be
treated
and
cured
if
addressed
early.

Endometriosis
Foundation
of
America

Dr.
Tamer
Seckin.
The
foundation
will
launch
Monday
at
the
first
Blossom
Ball
at
the
Prince
George
Ballroom.
