A little help please

Good evening lovely ladies hope you are well. I was diagnosed with endometriosis in December 2015 and had a laparoscopy and had ablation to remove the endometriosis and said there was endometriosis on my bowel. I was placed me on decapetyl and later gonapeptyl injections and Tibolone HRT I was on the injections and HRT for a year

In July 2018 I had another laparoscopy and more endo was removed

March 2017 I had a nexplanon implant put into my arm I still had some endometriosis pain but was improved with the implant my periods stopped altogether

2019 I started having night sweats and hot flushes and my own GP thought I was perimenopause and placed me on elleste duet conti HRT tablets

February 26th 2020 I had the implant removed as it was coming up to the 3 years after it was inserted and I thought I would not need the implant in with me taking HRT

Saturday evening 28th March I started bleeding not heavy but there was blood when I wiped myself and my endometriosis pain was really really severe and still is

I rang and spoke with one of the doctors at my surgery and she suggested it may be a good idea to have the implant back in as it probably helped with my endometriosis pain and symptoms,however with the coronavirus going on at the moment I would not be able to have the implant put in until all this virus situation has ended. I asked her if I should continue taking the HRT but she was unsure

I just wondered as I am in so much pain should I stop the HRT

Thank you for taking the time to read my message

Take care of yourselves and stay well and safe

I’m not sure what the implant involves, if it’s done at the surgery or not. I started Zoladex last week, no issues with them doing it. It was very quiet.

I was asked if symptoms, luckily not.

Can’t answer re HRT, sorry, I haven’t started it yet. Not sure why they couldn’t answer though, is there a GP that might know a bit more?

Hi sweetheart thank you so much for your reply much appreciated.

The implant is put into your arm at the surgery. I am going to call them again tomorrow as they didn't call me back.

You take care and stay well and safe
