Contraceptive Coil
Hi, I have stage 4 endometriosis and It has been suggested that I have the coil fitted. I have heard nothing but bad things about having a coil. I was wondering if anyone else has any opinions on if a coil is bad or ok?

Hormones affecting vaginal dryness
Hi I’ve been on microgynon for a year and it’s made me really dry and loss of libido, my gp changed me to Yasmin and it’s not improved at all. I’m considering going on the copper IUD but all I hear are negative things. Clearly there’s downsides to any contraceptive. But just wanted peoples advice or

2nd op/Prostap/Provera - which to choose ..?
Hello everyone, I am hoping for a bit of help/advice on behalf of my 19-year old daughter, who, after having a laperascopy a year ago to drain her ovarian cysts, has been told they are filling up again. She has been given the option of progesterone treatment (provera), Prostap for 1 year, or surgery

Could this be bowel endo?
Hi all I had a laparoscopy in October and I told them beforehand that I felt like I had bowel endo, as I often bled from my back passage during my period as well as diarrhoea. They informed me that they would check the surface but wouldn’t check inside. So I had the surgery and they found endo but she

Cannot find an answer to this!
I’m really struggling with perimenopausal hormone fluctuations. My thyroid levels are stable and have been for a while now, however at the beginning of my cycle when my protestors drops and oestrogen increases, I feel awful and it takes a couple of weeks to level out again. I had been using bioidential

Contraceptive whilst on Decapeptyl - do I really need one?
Has anyone else been in this situation and what were you advised about contraception? I’ve been on Decapeptyl injections for 8 years and these have successfully managed by endometriosis. I have no pain or other symptoms whatsoever now. I get bone scans every 3 years to check my bone density and I’ve

Private laparoscopy
Hey there. I’m a 32 year old female, I had horrendous hyperemesis gravidarium while pregnant and since then my health hasn’t been the same.

Stupid question but...
Why don't all endo sufferers who aren't TTC on the pill to stop the monthly bleeding? Surely bleeding each month just creates more endo, so the first thing to do would be stop the bleeding? My Dr is recommending the coil which "might" stop my periods, it also "might" make me bleed really heavily for

How to decide whether to have a hysterectomy
Hi, I'm newly diagnosed with stage 4 endo including 6 cm cyst and endo on anterior rectal wall. I've seen a private Dr who has advised I'd need surgery rather than just trying hormone treatment and my options are either a lap to remove what they can or a full hysterectomy. I'm 45, so fertility isn't

Experience with the Mirena Coil for Endo
Hello, After not getting on with side effects of Prostap, my gynae is proposing to trial the Mirena Coil. I'm due to have it fitted at the end of this month. I've heard mixed reviews - from horror stories (re side effects) to success stories! I just wondered if anyone who's had the coil could share
