So my journey hasn't been easy like so many of you I can identify with the struggles. 2 years ago I had an MRI scan as I was in so much pain that I kept passing out. On my 4th visit I got a general surgical consult who ordered it. I found out I had deep

GnRH injection
Just wondered if anyone had a period after having the GnRH injection? I had my first injection on 17th October, on 30th October I have started a heavy painful period. It did stop a month long period I was having and I was hoping that was that and I wouldn't bleed again whilst on the injections, or maybe

There is no evidence of benefit on surgical outcome so medical treatment should be for pain only and the patient's choice. Some surgeons like you to be on GnRH agonists (eg zoladex) to make surgery easier; others like to see inflammation and endo in

Timing to start combined pill for endo?
I was recently referred to a gynae to investigate endometriosis following an ultrasound and relevant history. The gynae prescribed me the combined pill (microgynon 30) to try in the first instance. I'm taking it back-to-back for 4 months to stop my periods. I've not been on any hormonal treatments

Hi, been on gnrh injection for the past 4 months and for the past 2 months I’ve developed severe eczema and swelling on my eyelids. Did anybody else have a similar reaction? I’m trying to see if the two are linked
