Suddenly realised I’m losing my hair - devastated
Got diagnosed with Hashis in June 2020. Thought I’d gotten away without hair loss, but I didn’t realise that my parting getting bigger and bigger and the back of my head hair getting thinner and thinner was hair loss. More fool me. I put a mirror up to the back of my head today and just crumpled. I never

Mini pill (pop) and constant bleeding.
Hi everyone! I started taking the mini pill ‘zelleta’ I think it’s called, it’s the cheaper version of cerazette I believe. Basically I started it about 5 weeks ago, and I have experienced constant heavy mensural bleeding for 4 of those weeks. According to my gynae I shouldn’t bleed on it all. The reason

Mid cycle cramping normal when on the combined pill?
Hi, is it normal to experience cramping mid cycle when you're on the combined pill? The reason I ask is because I am waiting for results of a MRI to establish if the cyst in my right ovary is cancerous. The ovary is currently cramping, not too painfully but consistently all day. My understanding is that

Any pill recommendations instead of Provera?
My daughter has suspected endo and has been admitted to hospital recently with the extreme pain. The doctor prescribed Microgynon but not long afterwards she had breakthrough bleeding despite taking the pill continually without a break. After 34 days of bleeding she was prescribed Norethisterone which

PVC’s
Hi everyone. It’s been 8 months tomorrow that I had my SVT Ablation. I am back to working out regularly, and I also got a new job while being a full time student. I am still taking my metoprolol twice a day, even though I really should start weaning myself off of it. I am scared to do that though because

CONTRACEPTION HELP
My options are limited with
contraception
due to migraines and an extensive family history of breast cancer. I don’t feel comfortable putting hormones into my body each time I take my pill, I often feel sick and as time has gone on my moods have become lower.

Anyone taken indometacin for Endo?
Hi, I was diagnosed with stage 4 endo 2 years ago and had a laparoscopy to excuse the endo they could. Since then I have been on the combined pill and just taking cocodamol and naproxen for the pain while on my period. My latest period has been unbearable struggling to walk or sit up without being in

Spotting on Mini Pill (Cerazette)
Please help I had never taken any form of contraceptive pill until 4 months ago so all this is very new to me. 4 days after starting my new pack of Cerazette I started to have a brown discharge bleed as period was already late, I am not pregnant as pregnancy test was done several times and was negative

Is it worth pushing for an endo diagnosis (your opinions, please)
I wont waffle, put I just don't know what to do. I've had enough of being ignored/ not listened to by doctors. I've seen a gynaecologist and had an ultrasound. There was nothing to worry about from those, and everyone is just telling me to go on the pill or coil. Should I? My symptoms seem to be unimportant

PCOS - Letrozole and gonadotropins injections
Hi everyone. This is the first time I have written a post on here but I’m just looking for any help/support. I was diagnosed with PCOS last year.

Is it normal to have endometriosis symptoms after finishing prostap injections?
Hi everyone, I’ve recently started treatment for my endometriosis even though I discovered I had it 3 years ago. When first told by my Gp I was offered the progesterone only pill as I cannot take the combined pill due to suffering migraines. I was not able to carry one with the treatment as it made me

Low Oestradiol 4 months after stopping birth control?
I recently had my Oestradiol, LH, FSH, testosterone, androgen and prolactin measured and everything was normal except for Oestradiol which was 35 (ref range 45-800 in follicular phase). I stopped 'microgynon 30' 16 weeks before the test. Should I be worried about this? Is it normal for it to take so
