Endo on the bowel and IBS

Hello guys,

I've been diagnosed last Dec with endo and most of it was diffusible all over my bowel. I had excision surgery but the doctor couldn't get it all out. I took lupron for 3 months and now I am on the pill.My period pain got a lot better but I have also intense IBS symptoms throughout my cycle. Is there anyone here with a similar experience? Does anyone know if those symptoms are endo-related and what can be done so that they can be managed?

Thanks in advance ;)

You might find that following the endo diet may help. I find that my bowel symptoms improve if I avoid gluten, dairy and refined sugar xxx

Thank you Janine :) . It is something I was also considering following and hearing that it worked for you, makes me wanna try it.

Thank you so much for your detailed answer. The truth is in Greece the health care system is a bit behind as far as endometriosis goes. I try and see if this could be an option for me. Thanks again Lindle
