Pain and sweats
Hey guys, My name is Kara, I’m 23 years old. I got diagnosed in June with Endo, after collapsing at home. Was under investigation for a whole year, misdiagnosed for IBS until I finally found the real cause of everything. I’ve been on the coil, which made me really unwell, 3 different types of pill

Vaginal discharge
I had a copper IUD inserted 3 months ago and now I’m having yellowy, smelly discharge (a lot of it) everyday. Does anyone have an idea of what might be going on?

Advice/experiences of removing merina coil and managing endo hormone free?
Hi Everyone, I wanted to get peoples experiences of managing with endo without any hormones. I have always reacted badly to hormones, they don't agree with me at all. I've tried multiple pills, depo injections, implant and prior to diagnosis through a lap (July 2018) I was on the non-hormonal copper

To coil or not to coil...
I am due to have my surgery with a BSGE specialist in London at the end of this month, she would like to fit the Mirena Coil during. I have had the coil before and it helped my pain and symptoms for a solid 8 months, but then I had it removed as the pain returned and my mental health started to suffer

Mirena Coil Pain: is this normal?
I had the mirena coil fitted five weeks ago during my first diagnostic laparoscopy where endometriosis was diagnosed. They didn’t remove any tissue, because that’s not how they do it at that hospital; the first laparoscopy is purely diagnostic. I have a follow-up appointment with them on the 31st.

ICD Procedure
Way back in April I saw the consultant in Liverpool Heart and Chest and agreed to have
ICD
. I was provisionally listed for 19th August 2019. I been waiting patiently ever since for the letter to arrive saying that the "provisionally" is no longer the case and that I am attending on the 19th August.

Pain worst when ovulating
Hi everyone, I'm undiagnosed but having laparoscopy at the end of the month. I'm starting to question myself now and worried that it's all in my head. I have the mirena coil which has helped massively with the heavy bleeding and pain but I'm finding ovulation the worst time of the month. Bloating, bleeding
