Hormones?
Anyone out there on birth control or any type of hormone? I think between a phlebotomy I had about a month ago and Besremi have thrown my hormones off. I have been on my cycle almost a month. I am perimenopausal being 41, but been reading a lot about interferons and the affect on menstrual cycles.

Breakthrough bleeding on combine pill
I've been on a combined pill for a couple of months and experiencing 2 weeks breakthrough bleeding although I haven't missed any pill. Is it normal?

injections for endometriosis
Hi all, I’ve suffered with issues since I started periods at 14 and at 16 was told I had PCOS which they did nothing about ever since. Only 3 years ago was told about Endometriosis and after referral I have deep infiltrated endo on my bowels and superficial on my uterus. Since then I’ve seen so many

Depo and anger
Hi, I've been on the depo birth control for around 9 months. When I first started it was so angry, and now I've noticed when I'm about a week away from an injection I am just so angry, no real reason, zero patience and it just feel so unlike me. Has anyone else experienced this?

Mirena coil
Hi everyone, new here🙂 I'd say after two illnesses since last year (suspected Covid or bad flus) I've gone from mild to moderate cfs. My periods have also taken a hit, causing me severe mood changes, fatigue/ crashes and heavy bleeding. I am currently not on any birth control. My mum has dealt with

TSH going up on Levo?
Hello, I’ve just had my test results back after increasing to 50mcg Levo for 4-6weeks. TSH 4.8 (range 0.27-4.2) ft4 18.6 (range 11-21.2) Previously on 25mcg and last test before this one was: Tsh 4.5 Ft4 18 I have felt very little difference with the last increase. I’m so confused and frustrated

MRI - what can I expect
hi, I’ve got an MRI next week as my consultant thinks I have endo stuck on my bowel. I’m at a specialist centre so have been told they will hopefully be able to see this if it’s there as I’m trying to hold off on surgery for now as currently my symptoms are quite well controlled on the pill I’m taking

Possible endo/rejected referrals
Hi everyone. I'm new here but wondered whether anyone has had a similar experience to me. A few years ago I was on the contraceptive pill, when I noticed that my periods were getting later and later. I used to get the normal bleed during the seven day break of not taking the pill, but then I started

Spotting while on the pill to stop periods - cancer risks??😱
After taking the pill for 5 months, I have spotted for a month and had to stop taking the pill for a week (triggered periods). Then, again four months later, spotted for a week and had to stop taking the pill for a week (triggered periods, which led to pneumothoraces for the first time of my life). I've

Endo, Mini pill and symptoms!!
Hi all! I have been taking the mini pill (desogestrel) for 3/4 years now, it stops my periods completely and worked wonders at the start but for the past 18 months, I am experiencing symptoms around the time that (I think) my period would be due including pelvic, lower back and groin pain, acid reflux

24 follicles - 13 eggs
I just had my second retrieval. The first I had 20 follicles at my last scan and they retrieved 18 eggs, 16 mature. This time I responded better to the meds (possibly because I was not on birth control before stuns). I had 24 follicles at my last scan before trigger but they only collected 13 eggs

Has anyone had a period longer than 7 days? 🤔
Hello everyone, Keen to know your thoughts on this as I await a GP appointment. A quick backstory: I’m 26 years old and have PCOS. From aged 15 to 20/21. I was on the pill to regulate a period since I’d never had one ever before. Since stopping I’ve had a period 16 times, so that’s 16 times since

I'm new, irrational fear of surgery help and pain medication not working.
I am to start on the
contraceptive
implant
that will hopefully help with the symptoms. I am also taking the strongest over the counter pain/inflamation medication but it has stopped working.

In-active endometriosis
I had laproscopy 4 days ago, they removed a chocolate cyst and found in-active endometriosis by my ovary. They didn't remove this inactive endometriosis, what is in-active endometriosis and will that reactivate? I'm currently on the pill for symptoms but concerned when I come off the pill symptoms will
