Birth Control Pill Question
I usually have periods that last 5 days. Would I still be protected on the 7 week break (sugar pills/placebos) since on 2 days I don't have my period. Also I barely get blood so would I still be protected if I start the pill on those lighter days?

Unable to get a full hysterectomy.
Hi I was wondering if anyone is in the same boat as me. I am 43 years old and up until November 2022 had never received any procedure for my condition, I was disagnosed over 10 years ago and was given 3 options - the pill, a procedure that would remove endometriosis but I was assured it would come back

travel insurance
Hi All, Had an OHS to have an AVR in January. Recovery is going well, albeit a few PVC now and then. Planning on travelling to India in December with my wife and 2 children. I need some advice on travel insurance regarding sort of cover I will need and insurance providers that do such covers etc.

Endo with no period
I take the contraceptive pill and have no periods but every month a few weeks before what would be my period week, I get very emotional, pain in my ovaries (I have endo cysts), my panic attacks kick in and I can't sleep properly. This goes on for about a week or a bit more. Does anyone else who has no

A long post - How medication was ruining my life, not making me better! Reassurance for anyone concerned about stopping medication.
Hi ladies. A very Happy New Year to you all! I am hoping that 2023 treats you all with improved health and a wealth of happiness. I have seen a lot of posts recently appearing on my feed regarding treatments and hormones, and so I just wanted to share my recent experience of stopping all treatments.

I have tried made me bleed and the others I am too over weight for. The only one I haven't tried is the mirena coil and I am not keen on trying it either.

What is the process for FET?
Hi ladies I’m now planning my first ever FET and just wondered what the process of this is? I think I’m looking for a kind of time line as my consultant mentioned me going on the pill before this starts (I’m presuming the month before). I want to have the FET in May so does that mean treatment starts

Frequent palpitations making me feel rough
I had a successful ablation for AF in October but I'm still suffering considerably with PVCs. My EP has said that they are okay but they are making me feel ill. Sometimes it is every other beat, sometimes one in seven. I hadn't had many for 4 weeks but over the last 4 days I've had several episodes lasting

Ectopic Beats
I have had ectopic beats for some years but it was always infrequently. I recently started getting them more often and had a 24 hour holter monitor. I was told there were isolated PAC and PVCs totalling 50 in 24 hour period. They are now happening much more frequently I would say every 2/3 minutes

Superficial Endometriosis- conflicting advice!
Happy New Year Everyone! Advice needed if anyone also has superficial endometriosis? I have had conflicting advice. End of September I had a clear MRI with a private specialist surgeon, he said it was likely Superficial Endometriosis and he would give me a diagnostic laparoscopy and remove anything

Can you relate?
I’ve just signed up and written my bio, and wondered if there were ppl here that can relate? I’ll copy and paste it below :) From when I started my period the pain levels were beyond anything anybody I met or spoke with had experienced. Every month I have to take each day I’m on my period: 3,200mg

Cutting T3 questions.
So I have 2 pill cutters. One by my bed for first thing and last thing dose and another in my handbag for mid PM dose. So far I only cut one pill at a time and store the pieces in the pill cutter, but I was wondering if it was safe storage wise to cut a few more? Also, if I should get more active and

Dienogest vs Zoladex
Hi Everyone, I have stage 4 endometriosis and Thoracic Endometriosis. It’s in my pleura adjacent to my vena cava and several places on my diaphragm.

Combined pill - am I protected after my 7 day break if I started my new pack late on the 8th day?
Hi, I had a 7 day break from my pill and started a new pack on the 8th day. However, I forgot to take it until the evening when I would usually take the pill in the morning - will I still be protected if I continue to take my new pack correctly? Everything online says I should be if I take it on the
