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

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.

Is anyone else really bad at making treatment decisions? 😫
To give a bit of background, the reason we had to start ivf was because I have PCOS and just didn’t ovulate. After a long journey with numerous cancelled cycles due to thin lining, I had a hysteroscopy which found severe scar tissue which had to be removed and then shortly after we were lucky enough
