My daughter is going to be put on this drug for uterine fibroids and potential endometriosis for a period of 7 months and then we'll have surgery for hysterectomy. She is very concerned about the side effects of this medication and I'm wondering if anyone on here has had experience using this medication

Waiting for a Hysterectomy
Hello everyone, I am writing to ask for any advice/support or similar situations. I am 39, F, live in Scotland UK Have been having problems since May 2021 - heavy menstrual bleeding and pain, hadn't had any issues or bleeding for 20+ years on the mini-Pill Degestrel, so it came as a bit of a shock

Not exactly PMR but advice please about post menopausal dryness.
Since I was diagnosed with PMR in 2017 I have had frequent episodes of cystitis requiring antibiotic treatment. These seemed to be made worse by the Calcium and vitamin supplement I was prescribed so I stopped taking it. But I still suffer episodes of UTI/ cystitis about once a year and now my GP has

infections caused by endo
Hi everyone, sorry this is long, I hope you are all having a ‘low pain’ day. I was just wondering, out of curiosity, if anyone else has suffered from abdominal infections caused by endo. I am just getting over my third this year and have trouble identifying when the pain is infection as I’m sure you

How long did you wait for a hysterectomy for Adenomyosis?
I'm desperate to have a hysterectomy and am seeing the consultant in 2 months. I'd be interested to know how long people have had to wait. My rough guess is 2 years 😢Thank you 💕

Prostrap & dry eye
Hello, I’m on month 5 of prostrap with tibolone whilst I await excision surgery for endometriosis. I’m experiencing the worst dry eye / blepharis. In having to cleanse my eyelids, hot flannel massage, eye rinse, and drops and then eyelid cream multiple times a day and it’s really getting me down.

Endo back after hysterectomy
I had hysterectomy in March 2020 leaving my ovaries in. I've recently had an ultrasound due to pain and bloating that has indicated that my endo is back around my ovaries. Gynaecologist has suggested taking my ovaries since I am now nearly 48. Has anyone else had this experience?

Hormones vs hysterectomy
I am 43 and facing the next (hopefully last) stage in endometriosis life. I have had two laparoscopic surgeries and a successful few years on the mirena coil. After an unbearable few months it has been recommended that we induce early menopause to manage. The big question is Hormones vs hysterectomy.

Speechless by my GP’s response
I messaged my GP surgery and requested a full thyroid blood test (not just TSH which is all I’ve been able to get since COVID) as well as iron, vits B and D tests. I’ve been feeling really rotten, and want to look at every potential reason. Now, bear in mind I have been on HRT (prescribed by them) for

Operations and GMC
Hi I’ve had a complaint in with GMC for a long time, it was about not having the hysterectomy with colorectal involvement which meant I had to have a further op for bowel adhesions as they were left. It turns out the GMC don’t feel it’s at all dangerous to have to have an operation and quite happy

HE4 blood test
hi all Has anyone had the experience where your CA125 was within the normal range at the time of your diagnosis? Mine was 29 the night before my hysterectomy. That was in 2020 and the CA125 since then has been in the single digits even when it recurred in 2022. My June 2023 CT scan didn’t show evidence
