My doctor asked me to have a thought about it.

Self diagnosis - period issues since teenager
Hello! I've made this account cause I'm really struggling with periods and I have since I was a young teen (my first period at 9). I've always suffered with my periods being heavy and the cramp is unbearable to the point of not being able to move. I've been back and forth to doctors and hospitals for

Endometriosis diagnosis (without being told)
Hi, I first started having symptoms at the age of 20 after coming off the pill due to constant regular bleeding. Which in the long run exposed lots of pains and eventually 3 weeks stuck in bed with fatigue, headaches, bloating, dizziness and even black fog over my eyes if I stood up to fast. After ongoing

Anyone healed PCOS naturally? Supplements?
Hi there. I have a hormonal imbalance since coming off the pill in July 2020 because it was one of the worst things I've ever been on. Before that, my periods were regular, I had no acne and my hormone levels were all normal. After coming off the pill, I had regular pain free periods for 3 months but

If Progesterone only contraception is so much safer than Combined Hormonal contraception, that why use CHC at all?
I've browsed through the FSRH UK medical eligibility criteria and POP has less restrictions than CHC at every medical condition. I understand that CHC deals with pain, PMS and amount of bleeding, other than cases where these are severe issues, why would anyone recommend CHC?

I think I have endometriosis?
Hi everyone. This is very new to me and quite awkward to talk about... Since I was around 14 years old, I was experiencing awful period pains. As a result, I was prescribed the combined contraceptive pill and have been on it since. I am now 21. Since starting, my period pains can get bad, but no where

Still bleeding and it will be 3 weeks monday.
Hey Guys, Last week I reached out and said that I was bleeding even though I am on the pill, and my doctor said that I need to take a break from my pill, but I honestly feel like this has been a very long period, before taking the pill I was irregular anyway, but a 3 week period is A LOT for me, the

Hematology appointment

PBC & HRT
PBC & HRT I was diagnosed with PBC in 2019 and have recently found out I’m going through early menopause (I’m 29). Has anyone else gone through this and are you able to still take HRT? I am taking urso and as I couldn’t use hormonal contraception, does anyone know if I can still take hormone replacements

Tracking Symptoms
Hi all, this is my first post. I'm so glad to have found this community. I'm 31 and I was diagnosed with endometriosis in November when I had a laparoscopy with excision. There is also suspected endometriosis leading into my bowel which could not be dealt with in surgery on that day. My mission currently

Symptoms before period
I have been diagnosed with IBS & suspected endometriosis. I haven’t had my laparoscopy yet. My periods first started when I was 15/16, I’m 24 now and I still don’t have a concrete diagnosis! I have been taking the combined pill for quite a few years as I find that it does help with some of my symptoms

New to Birth Control (Need some reassurance please) Also is it okay to take one pack of birth control and restart again after a month?)
Hi I'm new here :), so hi everybody! My question is just a few days ago I was prescribed the Microgen 30 birth control pills. I've been hesitant to take them yet as I've just been so anxious about side affects even though two doctors have already explained that I am young and healthy so am not at risk

Copper coil expulsion- what do I do now?
My experience with the copper coil has been nothing but misery. I had it put in early January 2021 and I don’t think anything could have prepared me for the pain I experienced when it was put in, plus for at least 2 weeks after. It took my breath away and I almost fainted as they put it in. Then I spent

Would I be pregnant?
Okay so I’ve been on the progestogen-only pill.. me and my boyfriend, we did the “d” and he cummed in me but had told me. I’ve kept ontop of the pill since it’s an everyday pill.. I barely bleed on this pill but I’ve randomly just started bleeding. I only really bleed if I miss a pill but I’ve kept

Manage pain
Hi everyone! I’m currently being investigated for endometriosis. I’ve had severe pain everywhere for a few years now. I’m 24 this year and it all started at 17. After waiting 9 weeks I had a trans-abdominal and trans-vaginal ultrasound. It showed I have a 2.5cm cyst on my right ovary and a small amount
