Indigestion & endo

Hi, I have been diagnosed with endo which is also on my bowel. Over the last 6 months I have had 3 episodes of indigestion, always when I am on my period & 2 of those times it made me physically be sick. I have never suffered with indigestion before and I am now wondering if there is a link here to the endo? Could this be causing it and does anyone else suffer the same?

hello, I was recently diagnosed with adenomyosis and endo on the bowel and tbh this has been my main symptom. I've been on the pill pretty consistently since I was a teenager which I think masked any painful period symptoms, but I've always had (as I called it until diagnosis!) a dodgy digestive system which I thought was IBS, and it always flared up around my period. So definitely a possible endo symptom!
