Hi !
i'm new to this site, but i got diagnosed with endo back in feb this year, before i got diagnosed i was having so much pain, which got a lot worse around the time of the month. i went to the drs about it thinking it could be ibs or just really strong period pains, but they done a pap smear test which came back normal, an internal exam which i got told my cervix was inflamed but didn't give me anything to treat it, my dr who has been sorting this all out for me reffered me to go have 2 scans which were, an ultra sound ( apparently id not drank enough water for anything to come up on the screen) then an internal pelvis exam, which came back normal...
once i got my results from the dr she told me she'd booked me to go see the gynae for an internal exam, which when i had that done i was punching the walls because of the intense pain i felt, he told me he was almost certain it was endometriosis, as he felt 2 nodules the size of a tip of a finger.. so his instructions were, for me to try cerazette, the POP pill.. and take naproxen for 6 weeks, i didn't take them for 6 weeks but i did take them when i was absolutely desperate, they did work.
i tried the cerazette twice, and found it really messed with my mood it was horrible!! so i called the dr again telling her i need to come off it and is there anything else i could possibly take that will help with this condition, but i am currently waiting for the call back today. if anyone has any advice please could you let me know!
thankyou!!
