Self diagnosed endo , support needed
I am very concerned I can't have children as well as had been off any
contraception
(for my own reasons) for almost 2 years with no pregnancy. I have been prescribed the mini pill which I don't want to take but feel it is my only option to help with pain Sometimes just feel so helpless.

Heart Monitor for PVCs/Bigeminy
I developed PVCs/bigeminy & shortness of breath after my 2nd Pfizer shot. I was referred to a cardiologist and I'm now on a heart monitor for a week and will have a treadmill stress test in 3 weeks. Shortness of breath is gone, thankfully, and I feel good. What is my doctor looking for on the monitor

Sleep and heart health.
Does anybody know if there is a possible link between poor sleep/insomnia and heart health ? The reason is I have always been poor sleeper due mainly to work shift patterns. I also have a slightly obstructive airway by way of a long suffered deviated septum. Over the past couple of years I have been

Feeling lost!
Hello there, Apolgoies in advance for the long post, I'm a bit lost and struggling with what to do next, so thought I would post on here and see what happens. I've been back and forth to the doctor/hospital for the past 9 years with suspected Endometriosis in my bowel area. In the last 2/3 years, a nurse

PVC’s - Did You Ever Find The Cause?
Just that really! Out of the blue started suffering frequent symptomatic PVCs. I’m having the symptoms treated but have no idea what’s the cause. Does anyone who suffers with them know what causes theirs? Does finding out help make them stop?

Contraceptive dilemma
Hi. Daughter has just had a six monthly check and cyst on her ovary has grown a cm and another has appeared on the other ovary. She hasn’t been taking progesterone pill which was suggested ( can’t take combined because of migraines)... would this growth not have been so severe if she had taken the pill

Hysteroscopy- spotting and 2 weeks later bleeding 😬🤔
Hi my lovely ladies, I had hysteroscopy done 2 weeks ago and doctor found 2-3 micropolyps in my uterus. He wasn't that much concerned about them as small polyps can go away on their own but because of my history of 3 chemicals in a row he decided to remove them just to be on the safe side. Doctor took

Have you improved your symptoms with a healthy diet and exercise alone?
Hi. I was wondering if anyone has had success in regaining regular periods through a strict no sugar etc diet and exercise. A lot of people online claim to have ‘cured’ their PCOS with extreme healthy eating and as the pill is not suiting me I was thinking of trying it? I’m lucky to not struggle with

Progesterone only pill?
I had the depo injection and found it really didn’t go well with my body (it was awful for me) just like all the other forms of
contraception
I’ve tried. The hospital have advised my last option is ‘progesterone only pill’. I wanted to hear other people’s experience with this?

Pill to prevent endo returning
Hi all, I'm sure that this has been asked many times but I have severe endo which was cleared as much as poss with a lap last November. To prevent it coming back my surgeon suggested either going on the mini pill or the combined pill and not having a break. Anyone have any advice on which is best, if

Raised cortisol and prolactin. Could it be due to T3?
I do also have pcos but can't tolerate metformin, inositol or hormonal
contraception
treatments. They make me gain more weight.

So many concerns about life affected by endo
Hi everyone, this may turn out to be very long but I need a bit of a splurge of all the things I've been worrying about... I was diagnosed with probable endo and endometriomas last January, then took ages to have scans etc because of covid. I finally had an MRI before Christmas, which showed stage 4

Coming off the pill
I am looking at coming off the pill, I have been on different pills for 10 years now and I’m looking to come off. I’m not doing it to become pregnant but more so because I don’t want the side effects of the hormones anymore. I was told I probably have endometriosis about 18 months ago but they didn’t

Natural cycles with endo
I was just wondering if anyone has come of
contraception
