Isn't it supposed to get better?
I had my laprascopy, cyst removal and
mirena
insertion back in August last year. Didn't have my first period until Jan/Feb this year and after years of agonising, painful and heavy periods I relished in the break.

pink blood discharge ( mirena coil related or endo?)
everything has been fine so far but has taken a while for my body to settle down with everything especially with my hormones from being on zodalex for six months and then had the
mirena
coil fitted in afterwards.

Bowel Bleeding - being passed between gynae and gastro
What I am not too sure of as well is that the bowel bleeding always seemed to correlate with my period, but since having the new
mirena
my periods have stopped but the bowel bleeding continues – is this possible if it is bowel endometriosis?

Bleeding and Fibroids
This time I've been told to stop the HRT altogether (a
Mirena
coil and estrogen patches) and this should solve my problems. The fibroid hasn't grown in size, but hasn't reduced either.

endo and mirena
Hi all, I have had the
mirena
coil now for almost 3 weeks and have experienced pain since it was fitted. I had it done just over half way through my cycle and started to bleed the day before I would have been due on anyway.

Advice.
Hi everyone, I saw a consultant yesterday via Cancer pathway GP referral, I have had horrendous heavy painful periods for as long as I can remember, I saw a consultant 4 years ago who said I had large fibroids and fitted a
mirena
coil. My periods never changed!

Conservative or Radical Surgery?
I’ve tried the
Mirena
coil, decapeptyl 3 monthly injections with Tibilone and currently on Cerazette. I’m also on the waiting list for surgery at a BSGE centre. My question is how did everyone weigh up what surgery to have?

I’m new here, could my endometriosis be coming back? Any advice would be great
I had the
Mirena
coil fitted during my laparoscopy. My recovery was difficult but I eventually got there and 7/8 months later I was back to myself. All was going great until last month when I started to feel some pain although it wasn’t every day so I tried to ignore it.

Mirena coil?
I have a laproscopy scheduled soon and my doctor suggested I get a
Mirena
coil placed in. May I please ask if anyone has had this coil placed in? What was the removal procedure like?

CA 125 levels and ovarian cyst
The consultant wants to fit a
mirena
and take out the cyst which is in 3 weeks time. He also ordered bloods , my CA125 came back yesterday at 42 (also still anaemic 🙈). His secretary said he isn't overly worried about the levels . I just feel a little lost and nervous about things really .

Decisions re possible surgery
Stay as I am (
mirena
coil in situ) and be referred for pain management. 2. Zoladex injections (chemical menopause). 3. Surgery to remove endo from the various places but not remove womb 4. Surgery to remove endo and hysterectomy.

Dienogest V’s Mirena Coil - Advice/Preference please
I have now been advised to take Dienogest to suppress return of the disease … or alternatively get the
Mirena
coil. What would your advice be? I keep reading about people feeling depressed on Dienogest and that frightens me as I greatly disliked the feelings of low mood on Decapapetyl!

Endo with no bleeding?
I have had the pain since then but had
Mirena
coil in between so it masked the symptoms. I’m worried that it can’t be Endo as I have never really had heavy bleeding or clots. The pain comes 1 or 2 days before period is due and lasts up to after ovulation.

Confused and seeking advice
Anyway - had
Mirena
coil fitted, it has helped with the pelvic pain and the ridiculous heavy periods, still have pain around ovulating and what would be period week, but it is manageable. It hasn't helped with the digestive issues or the pain during sex.

Diagnosis, sort of..
The gynae team want to explore the
mirena
coil route before any surgery to confirm which seems odd to me. I've expressed my concerns over how it could affect my moods again & generally the thought of it just doesn't sit right with me.
