Medication
It's been a while since I last posted! Since then, I've come off the pill, been diagnosed with IBS and am taking Buscopan when and if needed, and honestly my pain has improved so much! The only one negative is that my periods are very very heavy, and I'm trying everything to stop them being so unbearable

Progesterone only pill and heavy periods
Hi, I’m 43 and started taking progesterone only pill cezarette 3 months ago for very heavy periods. The bleeding has become lighter but I am now having a period every 16/17 days instead of 26. Should I give it more time to get into my system? Has anybody else experienced more frequent periods? Many

Mefenamic acid & tranexamic acid have made a HUGE difference to my periods 😁
Hi ladies, I have endometriosis left all over my rectum and currently TTC and awaiting another laparoscopy ( with an endo specialist) My periods are pretty horrendous ; so heavy and ridiculously painful. Obviously with TTC I’m restricted what I can take. This is the first time using both medicines

Hip and pelvic pain
Hi everyone, I was just wondering if anyone had experienced pelvic and hip pain on around day 20 of their cycle? Today I’ve had a sharp stabbing pain in what feels like my left ovary and now it is a very sharp ache in the whole left side of my pelvis and hip and now it’s radiating down my left leg.

Period or not?
I suffer from very irregular periods (between 5-8 weeks between them) and also bleeding between periods (usually a brownish colour - not fresh blood). I took Provera to induce a period and then clomid for the first time last month. It has now been four weeks since my last period and I have had bleeding

I can't deal with my periods anymore
Since the age of 13 I've had horrific
periods
. Sometimes they were completely
absent
for 9 months, sometimes they were regular but they were ALWAYS heavy. Right now my doctor has put me on provera to start my periods four times a year to reduce the chances of cancer.

Painful Periods 😢
This is my first cycle where I’ve made all the dietary changes recommended by the nutritionist we’ve been seeing, taking supplements and was a bit over optimistic that it would help with my hormonal and period issues. Cycle lasted 28 days which is a step in the right direction, my cycle was ranging

Diagnosed Endo in 2013, but new symptoms everytime?
Hi, I got diagnosed in early 2013 with Endo after suffering from awful, irregular periods and pain during and after sex. That op definitely improved my symptoms for a while, but I ended up having a second keyhole surgery after similar symptoms returned, but a new symptom was irritated bladder and more

Period pain between IVF cycles?
Hi I am between IVF cycles and I am about to start my next one. However I have what I can only describe as severe period pain. I am on day 4 of my period. Normally (what’s normal) for me is pain during the first 2 days. Taking only paracetamol isn’t helping. But does the trick if I time it!!! And

Infertility and awful periods, is it worth having a laparoscopy?
Hi I'm new here and I'm hoping someone might be able to help. I've been trying for a baby for about 2.5 years with no joy. We've had all the tests abd have been diagnosed with unexplained fertility. Originally I went to the doctor a few years ago as I was worried my period pain meant something was

Inofolic
Hi, does anyone have any experience of taking Inofolic? I have polycystic ovaries and our clinic have suggested I take it to try and regulate my irregular periods. Once my Fallopian tubes have been checked I’ll also be starting to take Clomid. Thanks in advance for any replies 😃

Heavy periods - medication?
So, work has said even though I have heavy periods (I also get horrible pains, another post) - changing a tampon and a pad (thickest ones) every hour for a few days, and bringing in extra change of trousers, I still need to be in work, I can't be off. Problem is gravity takes effect when I stand up,
