From Personal Journey to Public Impact
Since she was a little girl, Laura would tell her parents,
“I want to make the world a better place.”
She believed that change was possible. So she chose to study political science, driven by the dream of one day joining the army and serving something greater than herself. She wanted to stand at the front lines of change. She wanted to protect, to contribute.
But life had other plans.
The path shifted and the battlefield looked different than expected.
Because sometimes, making the world a better place doesn’t happen through the route we imagined.
Sometimes it happens through resilience.
Through advocacy.
Through using your voice when your body tries to silence you. Through building what doesn’t yet exist.
The rest of the story ?
She didn’t enter the army :
she is dedicating her life to advance endometriosis.
After seven years of medical delay and consultations with 21 gynecologists who dismissed her menstrual pain as “normal”, Laura turned to independent research and ultimately identified endometriosis herself. An exploratory laparoscopy in 2018 officially confirmed the diagnosis.
It was one of those surreal moments: waking up from surgery feeling relief (and even joy) not because of the procedure itself, but because there was finally proof. Proof that the pain was not in her head. Proof that it was real. Proof that she was not “crazy.”
In the years that followed, Laura underwent five surgeries.
This story is Laura’s. But it is also the story of 200 millions of women worldwide.
A story that exposes the structural blind spots in women’s healthcare systems, where chronic pain is normalized, minimized, and left untreated for years.
Why Toi Mon Endo NGO ?
In 2020, during the lockdown,
Laura realized how few testimonies about endometriosis were available in French online.
She decided to post a simple YouTube video sharing her story.
That moment changed everything.
The statistic “1 in 10 women” was no longer just a number.
It became faces. Names. Stories. Dreams. Tears.
Messages filling her inbox.
Endometriosis was no longer an abstract prevalence rate:
it was a collective, tangible reality.
Graduating in June 2020, Laura founded Toi Mon Endo in July 2020, determined to transform lived experience into awareness, advocacy, and systemic impact.
Determined to finally make visible a disease that has long been called invisible.
From Belgium to Switzerland ?
Laura developed a particularly severe form of endometriosis (2022) affecting her left sciatic nerve and ended up in a wheelchair at just 24 years old. In search of proper care, she had to cross borders, eventually finding the right surgical expertise in Zurich. That surgery gave her her life back. And as there is always light at the end of the tunnel, she also found love there, ultimately moving to Zurich.
After several years of closely analyzing the endometriosis landscape, from the patient perspective to institutional and policy levels, Laura is now expanding her work to Switzerland starting in March 2026.
Alongside leading Toi Mon Endo remotely, she is building her own independent journey, offering high-impact strategic initiatives and advisory spports to patients as well as to institutions, hospitals, companies, and public stakeholders.
How can Laura support you
What began as a personal search for answers has become a structured mission to transform endometriosis care, prevention, awareness
and to make visible what was once invisible.
Are you ready to rethink how we approach endometriosis, together?
