Being diagnosed with endo is such a crazy feeling, and it's nice to know other women know how i'm feeling. I just turned 20 and got the endo confirmation a few days ago . Like most women I had the feeling it was endo, after researching all my symptoms the past few years. What is everyone struggling with lately? I've been having pelvic flare ups like I could never imagine. The doctor started me on birth control, which scares me a little knowing I will have a hard time getting pregnant in the future. Does anyone have experience with contraceptives helping symptoms? does it actually work? i'm kind of hoping they will balance out my hormones as well.
