Should I still be bleeding with my mirena?
Hi I have a mirena in for my endo as well as the pill but unfortunately I’m still spotting after six months and I was just wondering whether that was okay?

Endometriosis and the pill?
Hello, I am new here! I went for my first appointment with the gynaecologist today and to keep a long story short he said it can't be endometriosis if I am experiencing pain whilst on the pill because the pill would stop it. I was put on the pill about 5 years ago to help with irregular periods, strong

I also didn't like the side effects of the pill and after 12 years on and off it I have no intentions of going back on it, especially now my husband has permanent

The pill supposed to stop endo pain?
In my second opinion consultation today the doctor said that I shouldn’t be getting any pain because I’m on the pill, so she doesn’t think it is endometriosis causing my issues. Is this right? (I had superficial endo found and excised from my right uterosacral ligament in a laparoscopy last year and

Anyone have any experience with a balloon / trapped rock / pulling feeling underneath their left lung/ rib cage?
Hi, This first started a year ago for me, I noticed that underneath my left rib cage I had this full sensation which was driving me crazy! It feels like air is trapped under there or like it's being tugged downwards? It seems to flare up whenever I spot or bleed on the pill, but can happen anytime and

Hi all! I am new here. Apologies for the long post! I have had bloods done on Day 3 of my cycle.
