PCOS!
hi all, Today I got diagnosed with PCOS as I came off the mini pill 8 months ago and have no period since, I very scared the doctors said about putting me on the combined pill to start my period and make them regular. I don’t want to take this pill as me and my partner have been trying for a baby.

Endometriosis treatment NOT contraceptive pill or coil
I'm waiting to see a gynae. This one took me seriously when I tearfully told her my symptoms. The debilitating pain I endure during ovulation and my period is worse than childbirth (I've had a baby). The bleeding is so severe that I flood a night time pad every half an hour. GPs have always been very

My Afib and Bisoprolol
My last post was 2 yrs ago when my AFib was ruining my quality of life.. Regular episodes and anxiety was the norm.. Fortunately by cardiac nurse seemed to read my mind during a catch up conversation and we decided the pill in the pocket 2.5 mg of bisoprolol taken when my heart misfired would be better

Lap V Lap Hysterectomy
At the risk of summoning a barrage of 'hysterectomies are evil' replies, I wondered if anyone can help me as I am totally lost for what to do next. I am 41 and I have deep-infiltrating Endo, as many of you do I'm sure. Today I went to see an Endo specialist after an 18 month wait as he is supposed

Spasms/contractions at night causing intense pain
I'm 34 and have had endo symtoms since I was 11 when my periods started. Endo was suspected right away but I was told if I took birth control it would stop it from growing. Deep infiltrating endo was diagnosed earlier this year throughout my bowel and uterine ligaments and I'm having surgery in the spring.For

A question to lithium users
few people mentioned that they take 20 mg. In case of lithium orotate- 20 mg is summ of lithium and anion orotate, lithium is only 5 mg in the pill. However, some manufacturers put a label like lithium 20 mg on the bottle. So, when people say they take 20 mg, is it just a lithium or together with orotate

combined pill or pop
after my lap in Nov I tried the combined pill but it just flared up all my symptoms to the point I had to stop taking it If I try the pop (progesterone only), from your experience did it help symptoms more?

potential endo, no confirmed diagnosis.
to take it right back I have been experiencing numerous gynaecological issues for around 7 years now following my first C-Section. Extreme bloating, heavy periods but not painful and also periods that last a long time with darker/old blood. Fluctuating from constipation and diarrhoea. I have been given

I think I have endometriosis
Hi,I am a 25 year-old teacher and I think I may have endometriosis. I thought I would post my story on here in the hope that somebody may have had something similar and maybe let me know how the rest of their journey to diagnosis went. I started my periods at the age of 10, they were always heavy

Contraceptive pill and under-active thyroid.
I was diagnosed with an under active thyroid after having my second child. I literally would eat nothing and gain weight. I got diagnosed and it took about a year to get my levels right, however it still wasn’t right. To loose weight I had to literally starve myself I restricted myself to less than 2

Does diet actually help symptoms of endometriosis?

Hi everyone... here to say hi and so glad to finally be part of a support group.
Hi everyone. I'm currently 29 and have been through severe period pain since I started my periods at 12 and ended up going on the pill and having severe pain, heavy bleeding and becoming anaemic. I still had pill breaks but the bleeding did get a bit lighter but the pain was still bad and progressively
