My mum is 51 has always suffered with extremely heavy periods and as she has gotten older this has gotten significantly worse. After being put on iron tablets and tranexamic acid by the GP with not much relief she was referred to a gynaecologist. The gynaecologist examined her and said her uterus

Whoop band and heart issues
I'm 45 and have coronary heart disease, I'm got an
ICD
fitted as I had a cardiac arrest at 35. I want to get one to track my stats etc, but before I pull the trigger as it's a monthly subscription service, does anyone have any advice about them?

Depression/OCD crisis
Trigger warning… Having a breakdown of crisis. I can’t stop crying. I have no one to talk to and my OCD is telling me I’m dying. The urge to self harm is strong. My OCD is contamination and health related. Everything is gross, everything is contaminated. I hate washing my hands over and over. I hate

Dienogest with mirena coil
I had a 2nd laparoscopy in March 2021 where I had the mirena fitted at the same time. I had bleeding for 6 months after and I started to get pain again when my consultant informed me I could take dienogest 2mg alongside which could help settle the pain. I have had to get it from abroad due to issues
