Should I find a new Endo specialist?
I have stage 4 endo . I had 5 hrs. of surgery 3years ago w/complications. It has possibly moved inside my bowels. Could possibly have to have colostomy bag and endo specialist wants to save my only ovary if she does the hysterectomy. Don't really know if that is good? Now wants me to take lupron shot

Ileocecal valve questions -> do I have an issue or not.
So for the past year and a half (almost 2 now) I have been having pain right where the Ileocecal valve is. I've done a tone of research and cannot figure out how to cure this. Here is the strange thing. The only symptom is that right where the valve is, i get pain. I have no other symptoms that listed

Enlarged uterus/womb, and rectal bleeding
Hi, I have cyclical bleeding from my rectum. Not every month, but more often than not. It's usually in the couple of days leading up to my period, when I also have vaginal spotting as well. I went to my GP about it in November, and he suspected endometriosis (I have no prior diagnosis), and referred

Just wondering
I have never been told whether I am correct when I say I have mild COPD, because I am fit and well, despite the lung issues. I don't use any medication and manage really well. I was diagnosed in 1968 aged 16, had a lobectomy of the left lung 2 years later. I have never smoked and other than the cough

Has anyone else on here had a colectomy or other abdominal surgery and had problems with adhesions on their fallopian tubes?
Was referred for testing, but consultant has refused to test my tubes because my AMH is also low and he says I will need IVF anyway. Have asked for second opinion, but could take weeks for re-referral. Should I just go private? Ovulation is normal and DH's sperm normal. Herbalist says my AMH not that

Partial bowel, vagina and cervix removal
Has anyone else had this done? I've got my 3rd laparoscopy and adhesiolysis scheduled for the 4th October but this time they are looking to remove parts of my bowel, vagina and cervix. What was the recovery like (duration/mobility)? What were the outcomes? I'm worried about fertility and the possibility

Hi what treatments are there for endo ? I am currently without pain but need to stop the pill due to migraine .
I had major surgery 5 yrs ago and have been on the pill ever since which has maintained a pain free life for me . I did have a brief break to have successful ivf treatment. I have now had to stop the combined pill due to migraine . The mini pill causes extreme mood swings to the point I actually left
