Hi all

After my last lap i am still getting a handful of symtoms, which in turn have led me to get tested for an overactive thyroid. It appears in a lot of research that a high percentage of women with thyroid problems have endometriosis? Since i havent heard of this before i was just wondering if anyone else had a thyroid problem as well as endo?

Me! Mine is now underactive, but it started off overactive when I was 17. It's only gone underactive due to all the treatment I've had for it over the years. Are you still waiting for your test results?
