We thank you for you understanding and hope that Lena’s privacy will be respected.’The Girls creator has documented her struggles with endometriosis and said last month that she was unable to do press for the new season of her show.‘As many of you know I have endometriosis, a chronic condition that affects approximately 1 in 10 women’s reproductive health,’ she shared.‘I am currently going through a rough patch with the illness and my body (along with my amazing doctors) let me know, in no uncertain terms, that it’s time to rest.’Lena added: ‘So many women with this disease literally don’t have the option of time off and I won’t take it for granted.’
