Advice on hormonal treatment?
hi all, 10 days post-lap here. Unfortunately ended up losing my left ovary and tube - had 4 endometriomas on it, 1 of which was 8cm, and this was all adhered to my rectum. So the surgeon said it needed to come out. I’m waiting for a post-op appointment but the consultant said the endo will likely come

Hillcross thyroxine
I have a note on the chemists file not to dispense Teva thyroxine. I recently got a prescription filled and I have started feeling extremely unwell with headaches, stomach upsets and feeling lightheaded. The only difference has been this change, when I have checked the box the underside of the pill

Preparing for FET
Hi ladies. I'm preparing for my first FET. I have a lot of emotions right now as I don't know what to expect. I have gone through numerous failed IVF procedures where the quality of my eggs haven't been good enough to make embryos so my partner and I decided on donor eggs. We were very fortunate in finding

Blood test confusion
Hi there, I’ve never been formally diagnosed with endometriosis but was told by my GP at 14 that I likely had it, but there was no point in confirming as the procedure to do so was evasive, there’s no treatment except the pill, and it would all sort itself out once I got pregnant. Symptoms were long

Endometriosis and Emetephobia
Hi, I have struggled with severe symptoms of endometriosis since I was 13 such as vomiting and passing out due to the pain I was experiencing. I have been put on every contraception you can think of since and so far only the depo injection has been able to mostly control the symptoms, except a few flare

Could I have endometriosis?
Hello, I am really struggling with symptoms at the moment and I still have no answers so would love some input from others who know what this is like. I have always had heavy painful periods since day 1, along with bowel and stomach issues. I remember being at school and being sent home because I was

Unilateral salpingo-oophorectomy anxiety?
I have surgery next week and I’m terrified. They say they can ‘probably’ do it laparoscopically, but this really isn’t reassuring. The thought of the scars, people going inside me, being so vulnerable to others, the pain, the hospital itself, having people feel sorry for me, it’s all making me sick and

Is Isosorbate Mononitrate 60mg necessary?
What I've got is very mild angina symptoms brought on by emotional stress. I'm 63, male. It's like a slight stitch, almost trivial. They've doubled my atorvastatin to 80mg pd. And "added in" Isosorbide Mononitrate 60mg pd to "alleviate symptoms". I'm happy with the statin, but the nitrate tablets seem

Is Isosorbide Monosorbate necessary?
It's all come as a horrible shock. Last week received cc'd letter from Cardiology to my GP saying I'd got Triple Vessel Disease with severe coronary calcification, lots of scary medical jargon, urgent increase in medication and an appointment with the intervention team in two weeks. No sugaring the pill

*potentially emotional topic* has anyone with severely bad endo pain regardless of stage have any positive fertility stories.
Hi everyone, I am 25 and not currently trying to conceive I am on implant and combined pill because my pain is so severe. I would need an operation beforehand to reduce pain before even thinking of starting. I am currently looking for work to start saving. I have been with my partner for 10 years

What causes subclinical hypothyroidism?
My brief history: Diagnosed subclincal last year and have felt persistently awful on all doses of levo (25-75mcg) and 75 pushed my t4 slightly too high. The side effects of it have been debilitating and in many ways I feel worse taking it. 25mcg puts my t4 at around 18 which seemed high for a tiny dose

Advice please
Hi everyone, I’m fairly new to this group and was worried about posting but I’m feeling so lost. I am waiting on a diagnostic laparoscopy for potential endo. Pelvic pain started around a year and a half ago. I have had an internal ultrasound which only showed a small intramural fibroid but I was told
