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

Advice needed on breakthrough bleeding and hip pain whilst on pill
Hi! I’ve been on the pill (rigevidon) for 6 years now and I often take pill packs back to back to better control my periods. I’ve taken a few back to back recently (maybe around 4-5 packs) and I’m half way through my current pack and haven’t missed any pills. I’ve been experiencing light break through

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

Worried about spotting
Hi everyone, I’m looking for some help and advice as I’ve not really experienced this and I’m unsure as to what to do. I have adenomyosis and endometriosis (but not had a lap to confirm yet) and I have been spotting for the last week. I’m on birth control but I have been for over four years and I’ve

stress
good evening, if this is to much, please just tell me and I will delete it. But umm, so I haven’t gotten my period, and I am panicking. It has only been late for 3 days. But I also have been dealing with a lot of stress. Like dealing with some relationship issues, job issues, and just feeling overwhelmed

Fibroids - sick of bleeding constantly
hello. Just thought I’d post on here because a couple of days ago, my GP asked me to call myself an ambulance due to heavy (heavy!) bleeding that I couldn’t stop. Just in case this informs or helps anyone or if anyone can share any similar experiences on anything that helped or treatment options. This

First ever phlebitis diagnosis...a few questions
6 days ago, I had a tenderness to the side of my right calf. This has got better, but I have a different red patch, which is very tender, and you can see a line going round from the patch (which is just above my inner ankle) to the top of my foot. It's very painful to walk. So I got an urgent appt

Can birth control mask cervical cancer symptoms?
Hi, I’ve been on birth control for 3 years, Microgynon 30 to be specific. I was wondering if the pill can hide symptoms of cervical cancer. On the two last weeks of my active pills I experienced light cramping (which I never had with my other packs) and am a little paranoid and so wanted some information

Combined pill severely affecting mood
Hi there, I am trying to find a combined pill which doesn’t severely affect my mood - any advice? So far I’ve tried Yasmin and Millinette and both have led to low mood and severe anxiety. I only took Yasmin for a week and persevered with Millinet for 3/4 weeks. I’m hoping to run pills back to back

Don’t know if I should come off the pill?
Hello everyone, So i’ve been on Microgynon 30 for 3 years now. I’m not sexually active and just been paranoid about side effects long term, like been getting a bit of abdominal pain when on the third week of my pack (that feeling like you’re about to get your period)which I usually don’t get. Would

Are any of you on both the rod "implant" and the combined pill?
Hello all! This could be a long story but few months ago my blood pressure was high each time I saw my GP they decided to take me off the combined pill (I already have implant in my arm its just over a year old). Using two methods have helped my flares remain at bay. When they took me off combined

Cube pessary disaster
Finally saw an NHS specialist gynae nurse in local hospital this week, having been diagnosed with bladder & bowel prolapses as well as cervical prolapse. After examination she recommended a size 4 cube pessary. To paraphrase - insertion was a struggle (I’m OK with smears, IUD insertion & childbirth)

Possible phlebitis on birth control worried
I've been on birth control for about 10 years....I chose to go on it, as I had the most crippling anxiety and it took a while to figure it was my hormones causing it.After a few years, I started having very heavy periods with clots, and I was given a hysteroscopy. They only found that my womb was slightly
