Impryl advice
Hello everyone, I’d come across this group a few days ago and I’ve really appreciated reading through everyone’s different stories and struggles with pcos. I’m 29 and have been trying for a baby for 12 months. I’d been diagnosed with pcos a year and a half ago after being on the contraceptive pill

Echo results.
Good afternoon you lot, how long have you had to wait for echo results, I’ve chased the ep nurses and haven’t heard a thing. I had my echo on the 8th of June, I am taking 2.5mg of bisoprolol morning and night and sometimes my resting heart rate is low 40’s. Taking the blockers for pvcs which are still

Switching from Microgynon to Rigevidon.
Hi, my doctor has recently switched my combined pill to another brand. They are both combined pills and have the same hormones in them.

Experiences of endo and pregnancy?
Hi, I was wondering what people’s experiences of early pregnancy were like with endo? I take the pill to manage my symptoms and I know it’s probably unlikely but sudden changes in symptoms make me think I might be pregnant. I started my pill free week on Monday and since then I’ve been floored with

How to get diagnosis
hysteroscopy but no doctors have offered me the laparoscopy to officially diagnose endo My most recent experience the doctor told me there’s no point getting a diagnosis because the treatment would be the same regardless (ie hormonal) I really really don’t want to take the pill, or other hormonal

Covid vaccine has made me the most ill I have ever been.
I’m not someone who would ever say no to the vaccine. It did help alleviate my covid symptoms when I got it for the second time. But the hormonal consequences have been life changing, and not for the better. Since I was 16 and first got my period, it’s been extremely heavy, I had to miss days off school

Hi, So I’m month 4 off birth control (spent 10yrs on it). The symptoms are becoming more obvious now. Currently on my period and I’m getting really bad shooting pains that feel like they are going from my vagina up into my uterus and having a pulling pain in my stomach. The shooting pains are like some

Anyone else having to take repeated time off due to pain?
I haven't been officially diagnosed my gp strongly suspects that I have Endo. First symptoms back in 2019 left pelvic pain, pain during sex, pain when trying to stand, felt like something was being torn inside when coughing or sneezing and painful contraction like pain when needing a bowel movement.

Gynaecologist Appointment TOMORROW
Hi All❤️ I was wondering if anyone has any advice for me. Tomorrow will be my second gynaecologist appointment after nearly a year of constant cancellations. I was asked at my last appointment to take the pill which I didn’t at the time due to GPs not being trustworthy but I’m on it now and it hasn’t

Confused! Do I have to follow up everything from my consultant with my GP?
I’ve had a pretty frustrating day so would be really keen to hear other people’s experience and advice. I’m female, 32 mins it’s ET. I asked my gp if my contraceptive was the right type given the risk of blood clots. They have no idea clearly so say they will research and get back to me. They don’t.

Possible endo (or is it just IBS?)
I have some odd symptoms and just don’t know if they’re endo or if they’re IBS. I have coeliac disease also so don’t want to assume it’s endo. Here are some of my symptoms: Frequent pelvic pain (low abdominal ache & sometimes pinching pains either side where I imagine my ovaries are) Worse constipation

Alternatives to the pill for managing pcos?
Hi, I’m 26 and I was diagnosed with pcos in December 2021, I have high testosterone, high prolactin and multiple follicles on my ovaries. This was confirmed privately and I was referred back to my GP who keeps pushing for me to go on the pill. I was on the pill for 6 years until July last year when

Follow-up post lap appointment
So basically my consultant has told me not only did he remove a large amount of endometriosis and then showed me the pictures of it all, he also found while in there that I have Adenomyosis - I have never heard of this before today! Feeling very upset and confused as he told me it can reduce fertility

Donating blood
Hello, I am new to this group, and I have a question. I’m scheduled to give blood in 2 days. I’ve never done this before and was wondering if it might exacerbate PVCs? Mine have been fairly active lately. I know drinking plenty of water is important before donating blood. Has anyone with arrhythmia given

Hi All, I’ve had a meeting with my gynae consultant today. After having the diagnostic 2 years ago, my periods have come back with vengeance. I’m either 10 days twice a month or nothing at all ( currently haven’t had one for 40+ days yet still getting immense pain). She scanned me and basically said
