Endometriosis symptoms?

[Lahodges10]

Hi all. I just wondered how many of those of you who have endometriosis suffer with recurrent discharge? I have all symptoms of endo, but also suffer with this. I wondered if this ties in with endo? Last smear normal. And I’ve just had my latest one which I’m awaiting results on. I’ve had an ultrasound three years ago and they said my symptoms were hormone related and sent me on my way...but after what can be described as the worst period pain this month and now very light periods (I know most say heavy periods with endo, but I’ve read they can also be light.) the pain in my right leg, pelvis, lower back and stomach/ribs is awful 😭 I get ovulation pain and on occasion spotting during ov days

It will be great to hear your less common symptoms in hope of my dr agreeing to further tests xx

I also suffered with discharge in between every period been to gp's a few times over the years and never got a proper answer just put me on the pill every time I also now wonder whether it is linked to the Endo since being out on the zoladex injection following first surgery it has not been happening

Thanks for your reply! It’s such a complex disease isn’t it? and the symptoms vary so much between women. If only our drs would take that into consideration 😭

Yes it is so complex I've had so many symptoms of Endo for many years it's only when the excruciating pain started in lower abdomen and back started i knew something was very wrong. Even then though the docs were acting like I was over reacting how bad the pain was and even had o e male nurse smirk at me when I said I was suffering low mood and felt it was ruining my life with no explanation as to what it was.
