Really not sure where to go from here - how much has it cost people to go private? I got diagnosed at 19, almost 10 years ago. I’ve not seen a specialist for almost 5 years as tried to manage it through GP. GP told me to take the pill back to back permanently and just have a break when I bleed. I changed

Bleeding heavily whilst on the pill.
I’ve been on the pill for 8 months straight, take it everyday at 9pm, but I have started bleeding very heavily & it is causing me a lot of pain? I’m seeing a doctor about it, but it’s giving me a lot of trouble in trying to work out what it is? Any suggestions?

I’m about to go on the pill (the combined pill-21days) when you bleed for the 7 days does that mean you are not pregnant?

Synarel the alternative to Lupron/prostap - my opinion
So, I refused Lupron/Prostap after doing my own research and having access to legal articles and extra information. Personally, for me it was unsafe and increases too many risks for me. However, this was pushed and pushed on me and I was always left feeling as if they felt I wasn’t willing to help myself

Advice about referral and the right thing to say
I really need advice on what to ask my GP for to get my issue solved. I have had lower abdominal pain and discomfort for about 2 and a half years. February 2020 I went to my doctor about it. I described: fatigue, bloating, period cramps when it wasn't my period, painful ovaries, periods every 22 days

Hi everyone! I was diagnosed with papillary thyroid cancer in January and had my thyroid completely removed on February 18th (6 days ago). I had no thyroid problems prior. The surgeon also removed two parathyroids as well due to their location. I began taking 100 Mcg of Levothyroxine two days post-op

Is copper coil a good method after depo provera?
I’ve had 2 depo provera shots and have recently become incredibly anxious and depressed (crying constantly for no real reason) which is really sad as I had been raving about the injection in the first 18 weeks. I’m looking into the copper coil as it has no hormones, can anyone recommend or let me know

Just diagnosed with type 2 diabetes, terrified
So I just got my A1C results back and it was 6.7. My doctor says that means it's not out of control yet but it is in the diabetes range. I am terrified. I also have high cholesterol (just barely in the high range). All other test results were normal ranges. I've always worried about my health but have

Running out of Endometriosis treatment options! Are there any more out there?
Hi all, I was diagnosed with endometriosis last May through a diagnostic laparoscopy, with Mirena coil inserted during the op. That has been found to not be sufficient enough alone to combat the endo that still remains and it’s started to grow back on one of my ovaries. They’ve found that my ovary is

Hello, (Sorry for long post) I have been getting symptoms(?) for a while and was wondering if anyone had experienced the same and whether you had to push for further investigation.

Zoladex injections for endometriosis
Hi , I am having my first Zoladex injection on Tuesday 23rd February for endometriosis treatment. I am very nervous as of what to expect or how I should prepare. Also my Gynaecologist has advised me to remain on my combined pill ? Has anyone else done so?

Suspected endo - any advice?
Hey guys, Hope you are all keeping well. I've just had a consultation with a gynaecologist yesterday regarding some fibroids they found last year through an ultrasound. She was really lovely and empathetic, said she has similar issues herself and like me, didn't't get on too well with cerazette, which
