The third annual Blossom Ball benefiting the Endometriosis Foundation of America was co-hosted by Padma Lakshmi, who previously announced suffering from the condition herself.
“A lot of women are delaying their motherhood from their 20s to their 30s, or even their 40s,” said Lakshmi. “Often you find out that you can’t have children until it’s too late because you never got it treated. And that is a real tragedy.” (abcnews.go.com)
