If you have endo & IBS is it usually worse when on your period?
Yes !! Its awful !!
It one of the first signs im going to start my period . I get terrible gas & a popping sensation in my bowels. Going the loo is agony & i have runs. Only thing that helps abit is wheat free & diary free diet but it hasnt cured it just made things abit better !!
Are you definitely sure it is IBS?
I was told for 2-3 years that I had IBS. Went in for a lap for endo in Dec 2013, turns out the endo is affecting my bowel & I now have to have colorectal surgery. So PLEASE, I urge anyone that has been given a diagnosis of IBS when they have endo to demand to have the proper diagnostic tests done to rule out endo of the bowel

Thanks for your replies. I'm having a colonoscopy in 3 wks and then a scan before I see the consultant again. Hope they can sort this out as pain was so bad a few days ago. Trying to be good with what I eat so maybe cutting out dairy next. Just really fed up as been in pain since July.
Endo surgery if you do not have pain symptoms
No periods. Bowel issues. Endo?
endo with out periods
Always scary when your consultant says she is too under-qualified to deal with your endo...
