I don’t have periods either (because of mirena) and I wondered the same. I’m on the lap waiting list. I will post the outcome

Hello Wilson I’m the same as you I have the arm implant too and I’m currently on the waiting list for a lap it’s been nearly 2 months 😒 so I wouldn’t find out anytime soon but will be following to see.

I know exactly how you feel I’m here lying down in bed an in extreme pain like as if I’m being ripped apart. Thankfully you have your lap soon so you’ll be able to find out what exactly it is. How long did you wait for your lap appointment to come? And I think you don’t need to have all the symptoms to have endo 🤷‍♀️

Is your gyne an endo specialist? My first gyne was not-some if the things he said were ridiculous-don’t think it’s endo as I can move your uterus? So I asked to be transferred to a specialist-he thinks my symptoms ‘strongly suggest endometriosis’ to the point he’s asked me even before the lap to consider hysterectomy. You need someone in the know 👌🏻

Hi,

I think you can have endo without periods. I haven’t had a period since August last year, had a lap in Feb this year and was diagnosed with stage 2 endo xxx

I’ve never had heavy or painful periods (max length 3 days) and was diagnosed with endo this week. My symptom was severe pain after sex x

Good luck. The gas was the worst part for me! Give it 2 days and it goes. Keep walking and buy lots of heat packs 😊 let me know how you get on x
