Endo or Early Menopause?

Hi all,

I was due to go in for a lap in June to remove endo from my abdominal wall, and adhesions from everywhere else. Due to obvious reasons, the lap has been cancelled.

For the last few weeks I have started to have hot flushes, on top of my usual symptoms that overlap with Menopause / Endo such as brain fog, fatigue etc. My libido is non existent. I have also been getting really sharp pains where my ovary is (not ovulation as it happens all times in the month). I haven't noticed any change in my period. I am not yet 40 years old.

Is it worth raising this with anyone do you think? GP? Endo nurse? Or do I just crack on as I usually do. It seems quite trivial compared to everything else going on in the world at the moment!

I’d contact GP or nurse, quite possibly if the nurse knows you, possibly know more. It’s not trivial by a long shot.

Don’t worry about the virus stuff.

In the last few weeks I’ve had all sorts done. It’s been much quicker! 🙂
