Does anyone else with endo suffer from these symptoms? Usually on a day to day basis I’m ok. But often when I spend long days on my feet or walking for a long period of time i start to experience pain with every step. I had my first lap last year to remove endo which was pretty much everywhere including the ligaments. I’m having my second lap in a few months time due to my symptoms returning. I’m just wondering if the groin/hip pain may be related to the endo?

Groin/Hip pain
I do. Normally around ovulation then I get it into my lower back/pelvic area till period finishes. Good luck with your lap x
I'm having bother with my left hip/top of thigh at the moment. Seems to be worse when I'm walking! I'm assuming it must be related.
I get these aswell. I don’t have periods because of the mini pill but I have noticed that the week a start a new packet is always the worst pain wise. During that week I find myself limping around as I have an unusual pain/ discomfort in the top of my tigh/bum that I can’t quite explain, but I look a bit odd hobbling around!
I usually have a bit of pelvic pain but a couple of weeks ago I woke up with terrible groin/hip pain which was agony to walk or drive on. I went to the gp who said it was almost certainly endo related .
I am wondering if my dr did a vaginal ultrasound, should he have seen endo if I had it or what test did you guys have that showed it...I have hip pain and a few mths back I had low potassium due to the keto diet...now the front top of my thigh and groin area , hip area has bad discomfort ...very sore.....I had a cat scan two mth ago for stomach pain that came back negative and that is when they said I did have lowish potassium which causes cramping....
So before I had my first lap last year I had the trans-vaginal ultrasound scan and apparently it showed up all as normal. However, I knew there was something wrong and got a second opinion. My consultant didn’t even bother completing a scan before my first lap, because she just knew from my symptoms.
This second time round, I had another trans-vaginal ultrasound and they were able to identify endo.
I think it’s really dependant on who does the scan, each person has done it differently every time I’ve had one, which is not so helpful!
The first time my endo apparently wasn’t detectable on USS, but the second it was - I’m not sure if that provides you with any more clarity! So I apologise in advance!
