Awaiting a further laprocospy but this could be 12-18 months before I get a date. I have been contemplating going privately or trying GnRh injections until I

Cube pessary disaster
Finally saw an NHS specialist gynae nurse in local hospital this week, having been diagnosed with bladder & bowel prolapses as well as cervical prolapse. After examination she recommended a size 4 cube pessary. To paraphrase - insertion was a struggle (I’m OK with smears, IUD insertion & childbirth)

Physical Activity and Anxiety
I noticed over the last several years that when I’m lying down and watching television my anxiety level is much less and my mind is more quiet than when I’m physically doing something. It’s as if movement worsens my anxiety and initiates the racing and obsessive thoughts; irritability increases as well

Hello Everyone. I'm New Here
Hello Everyone, I'm a 44 year old male who resides in New Jersey, U.S. and have been waging a war with severe anxiety, OCD and depression for 26 years.

copper coil discharge
I had my copper coil fitted last Friday and have been fortunate with mild pain and light spotting but I have started producing a brown stringy discharge. It almost looks like thick wet mud with grass in it (random description but the best I can compare it to) is this ok or do I need to see a doctor?

Endometriosis, HRT and Mirena coil.

Septate Uterus experiences
Has anybody on here had a hysteroscopy to sort out a septate uterus? Should be getting mine sorted with the wonderful team at Tommy's in London (they think I have a slight one that could be causing my issues), but she said something about putting coils in to help with the healing process for like 3 months

I don’t care which supplement is working.
I feel awesome; the combo could be placebo. Today I took: - 2 scoops of Inulin and a Probiotic first thing in the morning. My whole body felt tingly for 45 minutes. (Tingly may be the wrong word, it wasn’t unpleasant, more like a glow.) - Hour later: 1 Neurogan’s Urolithin A 700mg, 1 Fatty15, 1-1/

All the symptoms of OC but nothing seen on pelvic ultrasound or TV ultrasound and CA 125 of 11
Hi girls!! So my story started 4 months ago going to my GP with unusual bleeding, pain during sex, bowel and bladder changes and pelvic pain. Fast forward to now it has been a monumental struggle to get my GPs to do anything but with a lot of pushing I have had a pelvic and transvaginal ultrasound done

advice after surgery/ any advice on natural remedies or how to slow the regrowth of endo?
I had my surgery on Wednesday to investigate my bladder pain. Turns out my bladder is clear but I had a chocolate cyst inside my ovary, and my ovary was stuck to my pelvic wall. I had a different surgeon from before, who indicated that my surgery wasn’t performed properly last time. So I am unsure if

Health Anxiety coping tips
anyone got some good ones? In a pretty bad bout right now and some of my old strategies don’t seem to be cutting it. Restarted medication 3 weeks ago but not noticing much help yet with the obsessive thoughts and ruminations. Appreciate any positive suggestions. Thanks.

ICD/Pacemaker
I had an
ICD
/Pacemaker fitted three years ago and I am still experiencing pain from around the site of the implant. I also experience a jumping of the diaphragm from it which involves seeing the technician every six months for an adjustment.

Don't want to go back on the pill/more surgeries! Deep infiltrating endo on bowel and uterine polyp removed recently for heavy bleeding.
Hello fellow endo warriors. I have a dilemma. I really don't want to go back on the bcp after being on it for 15 years as it has not been effective for my deep infiltrating endo on my bowel. My ultimate goal is to heal endo at the core using non-hormonal & surgery approach. Not just a bandaid solution

Endometriosis treatment NOT contraceptive pill or coil
I'm waiting to see a gynae. This one took me seriously when I tearfully told her my symptoms. The debilitating pain I endure during ovulation and my period is worse than childbirth (I've had a baby). The bleeding is so severe that I flood a night time pad every half an hour. GPs have always been very
