on the list for laparoscopy!
I had my consultation today in the endometriosis clinic and although the consultant was a little bit blunt, he has put me on the waiting list for a diagnostic laparoscopy which I'm so relieved about. It's the outcome I wanted. Now of course is the waiting period! I do work at the hospital where I'll

Very ill since HRT and Moderna vaccine ….
Hi. Overactive for a few years then radioactive treatment causes me to go under active for the last 18 years. Menopause meant I was fitted with a more a coil 8 months ago to help symptoms and now trying HRT estradiol gel for three months so far. Huge weight gain but could also be because of poor diet

My copper coil in 10 years
Hi I had my coil removed yesterday after 10 years. Its not a pretty sight, worrying in fact. The health professionals said nothing to me about it or what it looks like. In fact they couldn't wait to throw it in the bin before I could see it. When I asked to see it I got so much resistance I had to insist

Merina Coil reviews?
Hey all, My doctor wants to put me on the merina coil and I am feeling really unsure about it. She wants to stop my periods - i have moderate endometriosis (two large cysts on each ovary and my womb is stuck to the back of my uterus) I'm only 24, so they don't want to do any surgery on me yet, and

Mirena coil or pill - experiences/opinions?
Hi all, New to the group - quick(ish) summary of my situation: Came off contraceptive pill (Rigevidon) in November last year, having been on it for around 8 years, and in January began experiencing constant pelvic pain, much like menstrual cramps but on a daily, unrelenting basis. Painkillers had limited

What is the best diagnosis and management?
Hi everyone, hope you are all well. How effective are the different diagnosis tools for endo? I currently have a 'potential' diagnosis of endo based on symptom pattern and a pelvic ultrasound whereby the transvaginal scan showed reduced movement of the ovary on one side compared to the other. I would

RLS flare from IUD?
I’m having an awful flare right now. I’m wondering if it is related to the removal of my IUD (Mirena)? I had to get it removed because it caused unending pain for five months. But now that it’s gone, I’m having this intense flare up and I don’t know what to do. Help

Copper. Oil and endometriosis
I’ve recently had the copper coil insterted under reccomendation from my doctor. The pain after having it fitted seems a lot lot worse than it was before it was fitted. Struggling to manage the pain along with heavier bleeding? Had anyone else had the same problem? Looking for any help and support possible

Going for a second opinion?
So it’s been a while since I’ve been on here but since then I had a laparoscopy that was clear apparently. They originally did not want to put me in for a Lap but after months of E.R visits and asking for pain relief after the coil insertion they found a 5cm cyst on my ovary. They told me it was a the

Any experiences of full or partial hysterectomy?
Hi all I’m new to the forum and wondered if there’s anyone who has had a full or partial hysterectomy who is open to sharing their experiences? I’ve had endometriosis for the past 20 years and have had two previous surgeries. The coil gave me a few years break from the symptoms but they have since worsened

Autopsies tell us the secrets of Parkinson's...

Mirena pain/discharge
I don't have an endo diagnosis but it is suspected and I have had the coil fitted today to help with the pain. Is it normal to have brown discharge/bleeding almost immediately after insertion (Less than 2 hours later)? Also, the fitting was extremely painful, especially the speculum being inserted/opened

Cats claw ( Gou Teng)
I have recently been reading about cats claw (Chinese herb Gou Teng) as useful for PWP. Does anyone have experience with this herb, or with the Chinese herbal concoction called Tienma Gouteng Yin?

What type of contraceptive is best with endometriosis?
I'm new here and need some advice. I've been advised by GP that I might have endometriosis after years of painful periods, following an unnecessary operation in October. They've prescribed me on Cerelle since November, and it hasn't done much different. I am on my period for a long period of time, and

Dienogest & Mirena
Hi ladies I'm after a bit of advice. I have stage 4 endo already had loads of surgeries ; bowel resection, uretic stents, stoma etc. The only further surgery the hospital will do is a total clearance and as I'm only 34 they won't consider that and I understand that the risk of doing so are quite high

Navigating endometriosis naturally
Hello everybody, I am new on here and would like to share my experience with you. I was diagnosed with stage 4 endometriosis 5 years ago at 23 years old, followed by surgery. I'd spent years going round in circles with doctors on meds that make everything worse. The medicines prescribed numb your connection

Hi everyone, I hope everyone's having a decent day! I'm sorry this might be a bit long..... I have been passed from pillar to post again and again by various gyneas, doctors, nurses and I'm getting so much different information and fobbings off I don't know what to do.
