Endometriosis, a condition in which tissue resembling the uterine lining grows outside the womb, causes chronic pain that leaves many women undiagnosed for years. This film centers on Dr. Robert Albee and his team at the Center for Endometriosis Care in Atlanta, Georgia, who perform laser excision surgery to remove the disease rather than manage its symptoms. The camera goes into the operating room, showing actual surgical footage of the excision procedure alongside Albee's explanation of why cutting the tissue out, rather than burning or suppressing it with hormones, produces lasting relief. The film's throughline is a former patient of Albee's, whose account of years of pain and eventual treatment gives the medical material a personal anchor; by the time of filming she had been free of the disease for seven years. Other patients describe misdiagnosis, dismissed complaints, and the search for a doctor who took their pain seriously. Running thirty minutes, the film stays close to one clinic and one surgical approach rather than surveying the wider field of endometriosis research.
