Implantation Bleeding?
The most likely time of conception was one week ago today. Yesterday I began bleeding (dark brown discharge) but I am not supposed to start my period for another 9-10 days. I am on the pill but I haven’t missed any days. I am also having very mild cramps but those are my only symptoms. Does this sound

Periods
Sorry probably a really random question. I am away to come of my pill shortly to start the protocol for my biopsy. Usually I would start meds on the heaviest day of my period but the pill seems to make them quite light so it’s hard to tell. Does anyone get the same? Do you just start on the 2nd day?

Blood clot
Hello, I have started taking the combined pill this past and am now on a break and started my period today. A blood clot was on the pad about 10 cm long? Is this normal or do I need to panic?

Can Mirena work if desogestrel doesn’t?
Hi, I’m new to this group and hoping for any advice please. I’ve been diagnosed with Adenomyosis (by ultrasound) but not Endometriosis as they say I won’t have a diagnosis without laparoscopy. I’ve been on Desogestrel for over two years which has definitely helped with the pain but the bleeding is still

Zoladex and HRT for Endometriosis
I've suffered with painful periods for a long time and after years of trying every method of
contraception
I can I have (FINALLY) recently been referred to a specialist consultant who believes the most likely culprit is endometriosis.

T3 only - how high do you keep your FT3?
I recently started on the progesterone only pill to try to even out monthly dips in my symptoms. It’s definitely helped. My most recents posts on here were because about 3 weeks after starting the pill, my FT3 went sky high and I felt awful. Whilst I was aware the increased progesterone might push up

How long does it normaly take Dofetilide to work?
I have been taking dofetilide for just over 1 month. I don't have AF but thousands of PAC's, ectopics and atrial tachycardia every day. These palpitations keep me awake for hours every night. So far I have seen no relief from palpitations. I see the doctor next week and I want to get off the pills because

Does anyone feel irritated and stressed more often than normal.
Hi I’m currently waiting on a diagnostic laparoscopy but as you can imagine the waiting list is long. I’m on the progesterone only pill but I don’t feel like it helps as my gynaecologist keeps suggesting it does. I have constant pain in my left side, pelvis and hip on bad days it goes into my left

Cerazette weight and high BP issues.

My first doctors appointment was in 2006
Hi all, I have been seeing the doctor since I was 13 years old with extremely painful and heavy periods, to be told they’re just period pains. I’ve been with irregular bleeding, painful urination, the lost goes on. As I have got older, especially in the last three years I have been in so much pain

Cerrelle constant bleeding
I was given the progesterone only pill because I can’t take the combination pill as I have aurora migraines and it increases the risk of stroke. Well I have been bleeding constantly for two weeks. I’ve been on it for 5 weeks. I can handle the annoyance of a constant period but not the pain and discomfort

Struggling with Premenstrual Symptoms & Hypothyroidism
Apart from the standard advice, is there any way to manage PMS? Is there a link between the severity of PMS and hypothyroidism? I've always had irregular periods, even before I developed Hypo. I'd always have to miss 1-2 days of school at the start of my cycle due to the severity of the symptoms. I went

Please help. Where do I go next?
I had my first gynaecology appointment this morning and have come away feeling like I haven’t been listened to and my symptoms are not real. I am considering my next steps and whether to go back to my GP. I had been waiting 1.5 years for this appointment and feel very upset that I may now not get any

Mirena coil malposition, low lying
I’m tempted to just remove and go cold turkey no hormonal
contraception
and management plan endo wise because I feel like I need to listen to my body saying nope to the coil again and again. I don’t want to go back on the pill I’ve tried them all and no luck before.

Struggling to get a diagnosis
Hi! I have been getting symptoms of endometriosis since I was 15 and I am 26. I have been to the GP on several occasions over the past 11 years with symptoms and they brushed it off as painful periods and gave me the pill. Most recently I changed GP surgery and finally seen a GP that listened to me.
