Suspected endometriosis

3 Replies

Looking for advice,

I no i have Endometriosis , it runs in our family, i have the mirena coil in to stop heavy bleeding.

Now the last couple of years my bowels have changed and my bladder is horrendous! Wondering if its attached itself onto my bladder and bowel.

The back pain is unbearable at times and down the side of my pelvis aswell.

How do we go about getting these issues recognised. Thanks in advance xxx

Hi, Well you need to see a specialist in Endometriosis. Some Hostipals or areas in the UK have places of expertise. Go to a proper Endometriosis Clinic!

Then after tests, perhaps a Scope inside, Endometriosis can be seen or found in samples. Not all Endometriosis can be seen unfortunately. Black, red and yellow can as can scars and distortion.

I wish you well.

💕
