Surgery coming up...will it affect my thyroid?
A bit of a silly question.... I have surgery coming up in 4 weeks (prolapse repair) and I'm wondering if it'll make my thyroid problems worse afterwards? I ask this because I'm pretty sure the massive blood loss (3.8 litres to be exact) and the whole trauma I had with my emergency C-section nearly

Hypothyroid and Birth control
Anyone had any luck with hormonal BC whilst managing their thyroid? I have had my thyroid managed for years with the help of my dr. She has advised only non hormonal options for BC which I’ve followed for years. Recently I got a copper IUD placed and had serious issues and had to get it removed

Please help!
Hi all, I have written down a list of my symptoms - could you all advise if this sounds like endo please (I know you’re not doctors but I need some validation). For background - I’m 24 and have been having the pains since 2019. I have been for ultrasound which they said I had what they look for when

Endometriosis nodule
hi guys! I had a meeting in private clinic today with one of the top gynae docs. Within the appointment he diagnosed me with a 5-6cm endometriosis nodule in my abdominal wall. My C-section scar is inverted on the right side and I can feel the lump. I’m so glad after all this time to finally have a diagnosis

endo- advice wanted
hi all! Recently had an ultrasound and my ovary is attached to my uterus and scarring actually very visible on the scan. I’m waiting to see a specialist - I saw a gp tonight and that was a waste of time as he didn’t know why the appointment had been booked and why I hadn’t received anything for the gynaecologist

Doctors perform kidney transplant on awake patient
Doctors at Northwestern Memorial Hospital in Chicago have performed a kidney transplant on a patient who was awake the whole time. They say the technique used updated anesthesia methods which may now be used for more patients who would be considered too risky to go fully under, which is the standard

IVF transfer protolols (adenomyosis / endometriosis)
Hey there fellow warriors. I am agonising over IVF transfer protocols. After a year of batch stimming I am very fortunate to have 3 euploid blastocysts on ice ready to transfer. I have had five failed transfers (x2 miscarriages, 3 BFNs) and feel like I have tried everything already in terms of protocols

And she didn’t even listen to me and that my pain is behind my C-section scar that is indented. I’ve now made an appointment

surgery via private healthcare
So I have been advised to have two separate surgeries before continuing with IVF, one to remove a borderline tumour via laparoscopic cystectomy (purely for health reasons as the tumour has the potential to become cancerous), and a hysteroscopy to treat a defective c section scar which may potentially

Prosterior low lying placenta
Hello, just wondering has anyone else specifically got a low lying Prosterior placenta? I have read that there is a least likely chance of a prosterior placenta rising ups it is at the back of the uterus. I found out I have this at my 20 week scan. I was moved to consultant care then for the first

Any views on consultant - please DM
Appreciate this is a niche post, but does anybody have any experience with Mr Ertan Saridogan (consultant) - particularly in relation to diagnosis / treatment of c section scar issues (where these may be contributing to sub-fertility)? I am being referred to my existing consultant as apparently he has

Is the end in sight???
Hi everyone, this is my first post and reading others seems I am in the right place to discuss these issues with others who know exactly what I am going through. Others, even close friends, I think at times just dont get it... From what I read others too have had a long long road to diagnosis and treatment
