is everyone else not getting diagnosed or much treatment?
I’ve had severe period pain for years, when I wasn’t taking painkiller in time I would be sick and feel faint. I have tried paracetamol and ibuprofen in the pad which did nothing. I took naproxen 500mg which used to completely block my pain but now only stops it being severe. More recently I’ve been

Spotting, bloating and weight gain
I've just had bloods and swab done at the gp for above symptoms today and the spotting has turned into medium flow period type blood after being swabbed. I had a week of spotting between red and clear to pink brown discharge but I'm finding it painful around pelvic and vagina area when going to the toilet

Control endometriosis with diet?

Could it be endometriosis...?
Hi, bit of background - I'm 40, I've been trying to conceive for about 4 years. Started IVF treatment 2 years ago and had 2 failed rounds with the last one being June last year. Since then I've had super super painful periods, almost to the point of passing out with the pain. I get pain in my right upper

Endo/Adeno Rant .... Exhausted!! Microgynon 30?
Hey Ladies, I guess this is just a rant for me to maintain sanity and clarity that im not the only one feeling crap with this condition. I've avoided the "recommended treatment" of Decapeptyl injections (put you through early menopause), the IUD, the pill and of course the glamourous hysterectomy

Poor communication or misunderstanding?
So... I saw my NHS Consultant on Monday about my leg pain and inability to walk when flaring and we discussed my surgery etc and I left the appointment feeling pretty deflated. Long story short she's told me I have to go on the progesterone only pill while I wait for my 1st Lap (hopefully less than 6
