Can progesterone-only contraception make endometriosis worse?
I'm having terrible pelvis, hip, leg and back pain and have done for most of the last year. I'm 39 and was only diagnosed last year, but have had symptoms since I was 10. I feel like my symptoms have got worse since my laparoscopy and excision last April, but have been trying progesterone only contraception

IC and pelvic pain
Hi fellow suffers. I was diagnoised with IC 3 years ago and have chronic pelvic pain. I also have vulvodynia and IBS. I have tried numerous medications and bladder instillations which have not worked. I have recently started Elmiron but too early to say if it's helping yet. I follow a strict IC diet

Itch Relief?
While vacationing last winter, I developed an unbearable itch on my feet. They felt like they were on fire and I was itching so hard I was afraid I’d tear the skin off. I grabbed some aloe vera (for sunburn) and rubbed it on my feet. Instant relief. Certainly easier than jumping in the shower! Hope

Tequila!!! For your health and longevity?
Yesterday I had a interesting conversation with spider 54 and one of the topics we talked about was tequila.I am not advocating for anyone to start drinking alcohol spirits but if you do consume them I think it is a no-brainer to switch to Tequila. Tequila is made from the blue agave plant which is

Same medicine, different brand?
Good evening. I take a calcium channel blocker called Vera-Til SR 120mg, also known as Verapamil however, this particular brand is currently out of stock and I have been given an alternative which is Half Securon SR. My GP has advised that I always stick to one brand (Vera-Til SR) and the pharmacist
