Kidney pain

[Lucky87]

Does anyone get kidney pain with endo? Just finished a light period I’ve had two one was 20-26th March and then I came on again 4th April so cycle day 15 and now I’m having left sided pain and I did a dip stick in urine and showed blood. I showed my friend whose a nurse and said could be from period or uti. I’m panicking I have kidney failure or something

Try not to panic - easier said than done, I know. Chances are you could have a slight infection, especially with blood showing up in your urine on the test - I’ve had a couple of kidney infections before which have happened as a result of a uti, but that’s not always the case! I’d pop to your doctors, they’ll do a urine sample too (I imagine) and probably prescribe some antibiotics ☺️

Hi, over the years I’ve had several water and kidney infections and they’ve been worse when I have had my period, don’t panic. Have you spoken with the doctor? You may need antibiotics. I hope you feel better soon x
