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

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

Trying for Baby 1 - having problems!
We never used
contraception
really and just went the natural route - being very careful each month around ovulation time. Months of trying and nothing. So I called the doctor, and they wanted to do some tests...

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

Supraventricular Ectopy and premature ventricular contractions
I have been experiencing the above almost permanent since last Friday . I normally have PAF and ectopics from time to time . It’s been suggested by my cardiac nurse to start Flecanide 50mg twice a day . I’ve had a blood test but no ecg/echo . They want a ecg 2 weeks after I start the flecanide.

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

Feeling pelvic pain everyday, GP told me looks like endometriosis?
I took the
contraception
pill for 4 years, which helped a lot but I stopped 3 years ago to have a break. My period has been much better since then (some pain, but I could totally handle it) but then during the first lockdown I started again with awful periods, and I once ended up in the hospital.

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

What questions to ask my doctor?
Also, at the last appointment, she mentioned changing my
contraception
from the pill to the contraceptive injection or the implant and I was just wondering if anyone had any previous experiences with these methods of
contraception
?

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

Bleeding on the POP pill
I took the cerazette desogestrel pill for around a year and never had a bleed or a period. I took a break from it for around 3 weeks and decided to go back on it. I’ve now been back on the pill just over two months and I’m having vaginal bleeding but I don’t know if it’s a period? Why am I now bleeding

Non-Stop Bleeding?
I have posted before and trolled through many posts but can't seem to find anyone in the same position as me. I have suffered from periods that won't stop on their own and only contraceptives will stop them. I am now hoping to conceive so have come off the pill and went back to non stop bleeding. 2 months

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?
