Stages of endo
Hi, So I have never been told the stage of my endo does this mean it’s not bad? I’ve attached a letter I have form the endometriosis clinic I’m currently discharged because I’m trailing off the pill as I’ve been on it 10yrs but also ready to have a family. Most we’ll actually all my pain comes from

Qlaira pills
hello everyone! first of all, I hope this message is not inaccurate. I previously asked two moderators about it but as I didn't get a response I decided to take the risk. I don't know if anyone else had the same problem I faced when trying to buy Qlaira pills here (a combined oral contraceptive pill

Update on last post
So, my granddaughter has been on the combined pill for over two months which has done what it was supposed to do, except that she is in more pain now than ever before. The GP has given her different pain killers but once again they have no effect on her. He said that in his opinion she may not have

Bisphosphonate success? My update!
Greetings to all! I can never begin to thank the special few ladies on this site enough who replied to my first note back in the early summer of 2021 and encouraged me with their positive stories and shared fears when I was absolutely terrified to make the decision to start alendronate. Petpal, Bogart0416

How do we find out about our baseline hormones and treat them?
Does anyone know where you can go to test your hormones/ baseline hormones? There's so many scam companies out there trying to make a quick buck with at home testing, and I have no idea where to start looking. I also find it so difficult to navigate any treatments other than the pill or the coil, and

Alarming episode
Am on Gabapentin 400mg which works only 50%; also suffer from insomnia independently of RLS. . My doc prescribes me occasional Zolpidem when she takes pity on me and the odd Zolpiclone. Last night exhausted after 3 sleepless nights I thought I would treat myself to a Zolpiclone - last one in packet

Can you take combined pill breaks at any stage?
I take my combined pill (Gedarel 30/150) without breaks, to help with extreme cramping and serious anaemia. I take a 5 break when I get breakthrough bleeding. Does this put me at risk of pregnancy? Is there a set 28-day cycle, or is this subjective? Thanks.

5% PVCs
Is 5% PVCs, with a normal sinus rythm, after 24 ecg OK? I have no idea whether it can be dangerous or not as nobody in the medical field said anything to me either way!

How to get diagnosis
hysteroscopy but no doctors have offered me the laparoscopy to officially diagnose endo My most recent experience the doctor told me there’s no point getting a diagnosis because the treatment would be the same regardless (ie hormonal) I really really don’t want to take the pill, or other hormonal
contraception

Switching from Microgynon to Rigevidon.

Experiences of endo and pregnancy?
Hi, I was wondering what people’s experiences of early pregnancy were like with endo? I take the pill to manage my symptoms and I know it’s probably unlikely but sudden changes in symptoms make me think I might be pregnant. I started my pill free week on Monday and since then I’ve been floored with

Covid vaccine has made me the most ill I have ever been.
I’m not someone who would ever say no to the vaccine. It did help alleviate my covid symptoms when I got it for the second time. But the hormonal consequences have been life changing, and not for the better. Since I was 16 and first got my period, it’s been extremely heavy, I had to miss days off school

Pain!!
Hi, So I’m month 4 off birth control (spent 10yrs on it). The symptoms are becoming more obvious now. Currently on my period and I’m getting really bad shooting pains that feel like they are going from my vagina up into my uterus and having a pulling pain in my stomach. The shooting pains are like some
