Mirena coil or pill - experiences/opinions?
Hi all, New to the group - quick(ish) summary of my situation: Came off contraceptive pill (Rigevidon) in November last year, having been on it for around 8 years, and in January began experiencing constant pelvic pain, much like menstrual cramps but on a daily, unrelenting basis. Painkillers had limited

What is the best diagnosis and management?
Hi everyone, hope you are all well. How effective are the different diagnosis tools for endo? I currently have a 'potential' diagnosis of endo based on symptom pattern and a pelvic ultrasound whereby the transvaginal scan showed reduced movement of the ovary on one side compared to the other. I would

RLS flare from IUD?
I’m having an awful flare right now. I’m wondering if it is related to the removal of my IUD (Mirena)? I had to get it removed because it caused unending pain for five months. But now that it’s gone, I’m having this intense flare up and I don’t know what to do. Help

Copper. Oil and endometriosis
I’ve recently had the copper coil insterted under reccomendation from my doctor. The pain after having it fitted seems a lot lot worse than it was before it was fitted. Struggling to manage the pain along with heavier bleeding? Had anyone else had the same problem? Looking for any help and support possible

Going for a second opinion?
So it’s been a while since I’ve been on here but since then I had a laparoscopy that was clear apparently. They originally did not want to put me in for a Lap but after months of E.R visits and asking for pain relief after the coil insertion they found a 5cm cyst on my ovary. They told me it was a the

Any experiences of full or partial hysterectomy?
Hi all I’m new to the forum and wondered if there’s anyone who has had a full or partial hysterectomy who is open to sharing their experiences? I’ve had endometriosis for the past 20 years and have had two previous surgeries. The coil gave me a few years break from the symptoms but they have since worsened

Mirena pain/discharge
I don't have an endo diagnosis but it is suspected and I have had the coil fitted today to help with the pain. Is it normal to have brown discharge/bleeding almost immediately after insertion (Less than 2 hours later)? Also, the fitting was extremely painful, especially the speculum being inserted/opened

What type of contraceptive is best with endometriosis?
I'm new here and need some advice. I've been advised by GP that I might have endometriosis after years of painful periods, following an unnecessary operation in October. They've prescribed me on Cerelle since November, and it hasn't done much different. I am on my period for a long period of time, and

Hi ladies I'm after a bit of advice. I have stage 4 endo already had loads of surgeries ; bowel resection, uretic stents, stoma etc. The only further surgery the hospital will do is a total clearance and as I'm only 34 they won't consider that and I understand that the risk of doing so are quite high

Hi everyone, I hope everyone's having a decent day! I'm sorry this might be a bit long..... I have been passed from pillar to post again and again by various gyneas, doctors, nurses and I'm getting so much different information and fobbings off I don't know what to do.

Ectopic anxiety
I was informed a few months before my last
ICD
check up that I had ectopic beats. Not so great news as, you guessed it, anxiety set in and my sleep pattern was totally messed up. I accept that Covid has made me far more anxious at times.

Coil Removal due to Mental Health
Hi I’m turning to here because I feel like I have nowhere else to go I’m 20 with a one year old and I had the Mirena coil fitted mid February. Physically everything was fine apart from mild cramping, however it wasn’t the one I wanted!! I asked and thought I had the copper coil fitted until I got home

Comfortable.....
In July last year I was given the coil and had numerous problems which meant I was put on the pill AS WELL. This sorted out all problems for me and I haven’t had any bleeding for months! But I am worried I’m becoming to comfortable on both of these and question if I should try and come off of the

ICD - Unbelievable?
My hospital MD team decided on an

was never ever registered to the hospital!

Is there a limit or risk to having multiple consecutive IUDs?
My second consecutive IUD is due to expire in August and I’m so confused about what to do next. I love having an IUD and it’s definitely the perfect contraceptive option for me. However I am unable to find much online about having IUDs consecutively. Does my body need to have a break? Are there risks

Had anyone’s OCD/anxiety/depression started attacking their own self? Like making you think you don’t like yourself? You’re not enough? I’m going through that right now and it’s making my self-harm OCD sooo much worse. Anyone?
