Missed miscarriage and endo
Hi warriors, Just wanted to share my story, because I feel so low and heartbroken, and I'm sure there are women here who can relate to my experience. The loss that comes with a miscarriage is hard enough, but then when I also have endo, it's that sinking feeling that my womb is just broken and it's

pink blood discharge ( mirena coil related or endo?)
hi all, I’ve had my endometriosis surgically removed last year in June and had the coil fitted then. everything has been fine so far but has taken a while for my body to settle down with everything especially with my hormones from being on zodalex for six months and then had the mirena coil fitted

Mirena coil
Does anyone have experience of mirena coil? I'm approaching 50 and my GP has suggested switching to that from Gedarel (combined pill), which I've been on for years with no problems. I've never liked the idea of the coil but they won't prescribe Gedarel after 50... Hopefully I'll have reached the menopause

Help interpreting results & likelihood of diagnosis if I saw a private practitioner.
Good afternoon, I’m at my wit’s end and would very much appreciate help interpreting recent blood tests and symptoms. I previously posted a few weeks back with details of private tests carried out with Monitor my Health on 24/1/23. They were as follows: TSH 4.74 mu/L (0.27 - 4.2) FT4 13.9 pmol/

6 weeks post excision surgery and still can’t walk far.
Hi, I’m 42 years old and I had a laparoscopy with four incisions 6 weeks ago. The surgeon said endo was severe and excised it from all of my reproductive organs and from my bladder, pelvic ligaments and an artery. They also removed endo cysts from both ovaries. Apparently everything was stuck together

Endo and Merina Coil
Hey ladies! I've just come back from my first gynaecology appointment. I've been told I have very common symptoms that point to my pain being endometriosis related (I already have pcos) I was under the impression I was there to discuss the laparoscopy my Dr referred me for, however my Gyno said that

endometriosis and hysterectomy
Hello. I very much want a hysterectomy as I have suffered with endometriosis for years I feel like this would be the answer.

Mirena IUD
What’s everyone’s experience with the mirena coil? I have had mine for 4 months now and had it inserted whilst I was under for my lap. I have a new symptom of stinging pains and my cramps are unbearable?! Is it worth me sticking it out? My surgeon always says it is best to stick it as it hurts having

Advice.
Hi everyone, I saw a consultant yesterday via Cancer pathway GP referral, I have had horrendous heavy painful periods for as long as I can remember, I saw a consultant 4 years ago who said I had large fibroids and fitted a mirena coil. My periods never changed! It has taken over my life, so yesterday

Severe stomach pain then a Lansoprazole prescription
Hi, in December I started experiencing severe pain just under my left breastbone (towards the centre). The pain was almost ‘stinging’ in nature. Like I had a paper cut which is dipped into vinegar. I had a racing heart/palpitations and truly had never experienced pain this bad. I also had pain lower

natural hormonal balancing solutions
hi I’m waiting for an op for Adenomyosis and endo this year. I also have fibroids. I’m due for a full hysterectomy - including removal of ovaries and tubes. I gave a coil fitted but it’s not very effective due to the size of my uterus due to my condition. I am getting menopause symptoms but I’m not

Post Lap Conctraceptive
Hi everyone, I have tried a LOT of different pills.. and tried the coil which caused 9 months of pain everyday. My GP fobbed off Endo, and so I went private. Had my first Lap on the 18th Jan and they found moderate Endo and managed to remove most of it. The pill I am on now (Marvelon) was controlling

Pre gynaecologist advice
I'm getting ready for this appointment as I'm so fed up with pain and being dismissed as a making it up. So far I have had a lap done in my early 20s (I'm 46 now) knly through belly button which they said was clear and told it could actually cause endo to start. This was a general gynaecologist at small

Having an IUS fitted with vaginismus, how to check for threads? and other concerns
Hello, According to two ultrasounds and one MRI scan, I've got both endometriosis and adenomyosis. They've tried different combined pills, the mini pill, and norethisterone, but none of them helped much or for long. The gynae has now suggested to fit an IUS. I don't like the idea, but I'm in so much

still having pain after lap a year ago
my daughter who was 15 at the time had a lap after pestering docs for a year and don’t think they expected to find any endo even I was a bit hesitant but yes they found a significant amount on one of her ovaries which they removed so they put the coil in and she still has periods every 40/50 days and
