Ovaries or no Ovaries
I'm 46 next week and have recently been diagnosed with a large fibroid approx 15cm x 10cm and also an ovarian cyst. Consultant has recommended an hysterectomy as I'm also having severe bleeding during my period and am very anaemic. Hysterectomy is also being recommended as my mother had breast cancer

Why all of a sudden Endo?
I am aware on here that many people have experienced problems for many years, since puberty. I have what is suspected to be Endometriosis, but I haven't had any problems until the past 2 and a half years. Is this unusual? I know it takes a long time to get a correct diagnosis. I am waiting for a

It seems unfair to share my good news as I know many on this site are unsure how there diagnosis will go, as I was too at the beginning of my journey. But it is also good to read how many have good results. I was diagnosed with stage 3 Ovarian cancer over two years ago now. I had a hysterectomy, six

Adenomyosis, should I have hysterectomy?
The short version is that I have adenomyosis. I've always had heavy periods with period pains that make my thighs numb and require prescription painkillers. At the age of 44 I had some symptoms of perimenopause and tried HRT. After two years I came off and that seems to have triggered a strong reaction

Hysterectomy leaving 1 ovary...
Does anyone have experience of this? I seen an expert gynae BSGE clinical lead and he was so blaze about the fact I may as well just get a hysterectomy since I'm done having kids.

Should I have a hysterectomy?
The short version is that I have adenomyosis, but it is well enough managed on zoladex/Tibolone that I'm not having any significant pain and not bleeding enough that it is a problem, but I do have lots of more minor issues and my consultant thinks a hysterectomy would be better. I've got the op booked

frustrated and frightened
This is not a question, and sorry very long so don’t feel you need to read, just feel I need to connect with those who understand. I was due to have a total hysterectomy, bowel resection and excision of any endo on Monday at a BSGE centre and have been cancelled last minute due to the junior doctors

Saw a specialist
I saw a specialist in endometriosis last week and it was eye opening. I had to pay for it or wait 12 months so I opted to go private. I spent over an hour with him and he was incredible. He explained everything and was very practical. I had a list of questions and he answered all of them. I already know

Monthly endometriosis bleeding after hysterectomy
Hi, I'm new here, so sorry if this has been asked before. I had a hysterectomy (retaining ovaries and cervix) in June, but since August have had monthly bleeding. Pretty sure it's endometriosis, which I was only diagnosed with when the hysterectomy was undertaken. It was in my bowel and pouch of Douglas

I've been prescribed Amitriptyline for pelvic pain. Has anyone had success with this medication?

It's an 18 month wait.So, I've been prescribed Amitriptyline and he wants me to trial Prostsap again. Which I'm nervous to do, as it was the

Does tibilone get better?
Hello everyone, I've just finished a 6 month course of prostap with no add back hrt. I had a pretty rough time on prostap alone, apparently I was supposed to be prescribed hrt alongside but never was, and in order to carry on my consultant has now added in tibilone. I thought the prostap was bad but

pelvic floor
Hi everyone, I hope that you are doing okay. I was wondering if anyone is also suffering with pelvic floor dysfunction as well as evil endo? I have stage 3/4 my consultant wanted me to try prostap prior to hysterectomy (I am petrified) and have not started it yet. I guess I’m wondering if anyone
