birth control
I’ve been having horrible mood swings on the birth control pill. My doctor thinks I could possibly be sensitive to estrogen. I’ve never had a baby so an IUD is not an option for me. Im looking at the Depo shot or the nexplanon implant. However she did say depo can make my depression worse. Does anyone

Microgynon 30 for stopping periods?
I recently had a referral to query endometriosis. I've always had pretty bad cramps with my period, resulting in fainting, vomiting or both. Since my teens I managed it with ibrupofen, which doesn't completely stop the cramps but was at least allowing me to be functional and not faint etc. I also

Sertraline and Sotalol
Apologies as I have already posted this on a previous thread, but I think other fellow AFibbers need to be aware of this. I was recently put on a low does of Sertraline (an anti depressant) as a treatment for IBS, as had the most horrendous abdominal cramps that over the counter medications barely touched

Advice re the pill and endometriosis and fibroids
Hello everyone, I'm wondering if anyone can give me advice or has been in a similar situation before. I had major surgery to remove endometriosis from the bladder and surrounding areas in 2015.

My Endometriosis Story
Hi, my name is Nicole and I’m 28 years old. I was diagnosed with severe Endo about 5 years ago after a Laparoscopy. I had 2 large ‘chocolate’ cysts, 2 subserosal fibrosis and Adenomyosis. Surgery went well, and I’ve been on the contraceptive pill for 4-5 years ever since. I recently came off the pill

Hard uncomfortable thumps.
I have various heart issues, including AF, PACs, PVCs and sinus tachycardia during panic attacks. However, recently I've experienced the occasional strong, thumping beat (which is lso a tiny bit painful). I've only ever experienced these thumps one at a time - they never manifest as couplets, triplets

hello! I'm hoping for advice. I'm 25, I've been diagnosed with stage 1 endometriosis and got a laparoscopy 8 days ago, where they removed endo implants from the back of the uterus. My doubt is about birth control. Now I've been prescribed to go back to Femodette again. I took femodette
