Hi there, I’m new, not just to this site but to anything like this!! Joined because I had my first lap in December 2016 and it’s looking likely I need another one. After getting fed up of no one understanding what it’s like to have endometriosis or unexplained infertility because of it, I though I’d chat to people who do understand x

Hi maaf, I know exactly how you feel, I’m new to this too and that’s why I joined here. I’m finding it helpful already, if nothing else it puts your mind at rest that what ever it is your feeling or dealing with, it’s not just you x

Thanks Stroppyboard, definitely helps to not feel like you’re exaggerating the physical or mental pain when others know what it’s like x

I’m new to this too and joined here this year. You will get plenty of support on here. I find it’s really helped me being able to read others stories and to ask questions. Lots of lovely ladies on here and we all support each other.

I know that family and friends don’t really get it and I joined as I didn’t want to speak to them all the time about it, I wanted to speak to people who understood and actually got what I was saying x

I am new here as well. I had my first surgery when I was 18. Then another ten years later. I remember how awful I felt on top of the pain I was in! I hope you find answers and support here. Here’s a ton of information out there and sometimes other people who are going through the same thing can ease your mind.

Not what you're looking for?
