Should I go to the GP?
I was diagnosed with endometriosis on 10/10/19 via laparoscopy, and had an excision. I also had the Kyleena coil fitted whilst I was under general anaesthetic. Recovery was fine, the first week was very painful, but by the second it had calmed down and I was just tired. It’s now been just over 4 weeks

Lizinna pill any good for Endo?
So my current pill was making me bleed constantly and so we've upped the dosage - lizinna. Wondering if anyone has had any experience with this pill? They said to me if this doesn't work then I will have to consider the coil which I DO NOT want because it genuinely stresses me out and I really need method

What’s the best contraception to use for those with PCOS.?
I have been taking the pill for 3/4 months. I have noticed I am feeling more anxious, worried etc over tiny things. I stopped taking the pill years ago and have been lucky to have had two babies. Now I’m back taking contraception but feel like I’m on edge and snappy all the time. What is good for balancing

Hormonal coil fitted - still getting abdominal cramps
Hi, I had the hormonal coil fitted 8 weeks ago and still getting abdominal cramps. Is this normal? It's the first time of having a coil and I'm struggling to get into the sexual health clinic to get it checked and my own doctors just say I need to go to the sexual health clinic! Thank you.

Unexplained Gyne problems/ wanting to plan a family
Hi I wonder if anyone is in the same boat? Since I remember I've had endless problems with very painful and heavy periods, pain during and after sex and constant pain and bloating. I've been on numerous contraceptives to reduce or stop periods, currently have Minerva coil fitted. All of the above

Unsure if I should have a laparoscopy
Hi, I have an operation date for a laparoscopy but I can't decide if this is something I should do or not. I have suffered from heavy bleeding and pain for 9 years since I had children. I am worried that they might damage my bladder or bowel and I will be worse off than I am now. I have endometriosis

This may be of interest, especially to those contemplating post-radiation salvage treatment (as well as those contemplating primary treatment). Seems to me this could address one of the issues with HIFU -- the cooling coil should allow more energy to be directed toward killing the cancer with less

Hello all, I'm just wondering other peoples opinions and experiences with the coil as a treatment for Endo? I had mine fitted in February when I had my diagnostic lap as the doctor said it was the best available treatment currently! It has helped massively with my bleeding as I am now only having spotting
