Help please
I had endo surgery in 2016 after 10 years of pushing for a diagnosis. I was found to have extensive scaring at the front (across section scar) and endo going into my bowel. I've had urinary symptoms for years, although they've never looked into this. I was told I had DIE.After surgery I fell pregnant

Adenomyosis diagnosis journey
Hi Everyone, This is a long one but I hope it helps someone out there who may be on the same journey! From my first period when I was 11 I had long heavy painful periods, It would wipe me out, I was told that it was normal and that periods were painful and that as a young lady I needed to get on with

Could I have endometriosis?
Hello, I am really struggling with symptoms at the moment and I still have no answers so would love some input from others who know what this is like. I have always had heavy painful periods since day 1, along with bowel and stomach issues. I remember being at school and being sent home because I was

Advice request - going in circles with doctors
Hi all, I've been suffering with endometriosis for years but I'm really struggling to get proper help with it, and the doctors seem to be thinking now it might be something else.

Adeno diagnosis...I think? Should I still have a lap???
Hi! If anyone has any experience of this or advice I'm all ears.....Following ultrasounds for pelvic pain that showed i had a bulky womb, small fibroids, plus a polyp at the top of my cervix, I had an MRI done.

Advice on egg freezing and hysterectomy for severely heavy bleeding
Hi everyone, I'm doing a little bit of research so I can take a huge stack of notes to my next gynaecology appointment, and wondered if anyone was able to share their experiences. I'm looking at potentially freezing some of my eggs, as I have endometriomas. I'm still undecided as to whether I want children

Anyone had adhesions removed to then be told it isn’t endometriosis?
Hello, I am so confused and just need to know if anyone has been in the same situation/ advice on where to go next. Had my lap on the 28th dec and the nurse went through my lap notes. She said they had removed endo adhesions that had connected my left ovary to my bowel and that the surgeon would

Fluctuating T4?
Hi all, Would really appreciate some advice on fluctuating free T4 levels - having had a dose increase from 50 to 75mg end of September 23, T4 finally went up to 16.7 (range 11.50 -22.7) in December - I know this still needs improvement and I still have the full range of symptoms but doctors wouldn't

Replacement Mirena and weird symptoms
Hello everyone, I’ve been diagnosed this last year with endo on bowel, uterus and ovaries, fibroids and adenomyosis, had symptoms for 20 years however. I had my Levosert coil changed in November back to a Mirena. I always had relief from Mirenas in the past, especially for the first 18 months of having

Hi everyone, I am on 100mg Levo and 15mcg Lio daily and I feel OK. As I have an appointment with my endo soon, and doing NHS blood tests is rubbish due to the timing issues, I have just done a private blood test. I know my Endo is going to focus on my TSH which is negligible but my T3 and T4 levels

Overwhelmed and scared!
hello, I’m 43 years old and have suffered since the age of 12 with heavy periods, back pain, hip pain, and in excruciating pain when on my period. I’ve lost count of the no of times I’ve been at the GP. I was put on the pill at 13 to help, then the coil, mefenemic acid, tranexamic acid the lot. In

Leggings are like satsumas 😃, peel a satsuma and you eat it! 555 seconds!
Don your running leggings and you go out for a run.So I ran yesterday, 3k, run 1 of the NRC 10k plan, run 2 (and I know I can mix them up) is 555 seconds, I didn't think that would satisfy me after a day's rest so I sent the times to my watch, 5 min zone 1, warm up, start coach B and 10 min zone 2,

Merina and leg pain
Just that really, wondering if anyone else gets this and has any explanation? It’s more of a pulsing ache and more in the left leg than the right, but it’s not clear to me what it is or how concerned I should be. Pretty sure it’s just been since having the coil fitted.

Hormone imbalance
hey, I’ve been suffering with endo for years and have had a few laparoscopies which helped and had a coil inserted which helped but I had removed 2.5 years afterwards due to suspected weight gain! A year on from having coil removed and endo has reared its ugly head and I have been in pain, had periods

Is hysterectomy my only option?
I was told 12 months ago that I have abcess near ovary and uterus, possibly due to previous infected copper coil. Have had repeated episodes of pelvic pain, hospitalisation, antibiotic treatment. Doctor has now mentioned hysterectomy. I'm waiting for a recent CT scan. Doctor has not mentioned drainage
