My story - needing advice
I am currently suspected of endometriosis and PCOS. I have been put on all types of contraceptives over the years to ease symptoms but find it only works for short time before they return. Migraines, acne and pain and heavy bleeding have gotten worse over the years. Gynaecology team are disregarding

IUD Copper Coil - Worth it or not?
Hello, I am new here. Me and my man are not planning to have kids in next 5 years and the best natural option we found to prevent "little accidents" was Coper coil IUD. I am 20 and have never been taking any other pregnancy pills but I have been always having very heavy and painful menstrual periods

Is the mirena coil making me this way??
Hi, I have had the Kiera coil fitted 18 months since having my 3rd laparoscopy for severe endo. Everything has been fine , my period stopped but for the last 3/4 I have had pain again, my moods are horrendous and my passion for life and tolerance for people is thin! As well as the weight gain and acne

Endometriosis and Adenomyosis, are they the same?
Hey everyone, I recently had an internal ultrasound as part of the beginning of my investigation into endometriosis and the woman was absolutely amazing - she found 2 things. Firstly, she said my copper coil was embedded into my uterus, so I need to have that removed (which actually got me a referral

2 weeks post op ? What’s normal?
I had major surgery to help with stage 3/4 endo and had the coil fitted to help not only with endo but adenomyosis. It was the longest surgery I have had done Surgery went to plan and endometriosis was removed within reason BUT Is it normal to feel deflated and have good and bad days still, Internal

ADAA Story of Triumph: You Can Teach an Old(er) Dog – With OCD – New Tricks! (Or Why I Attended an OCD Treatment Program in My Late 40s)
Christine has struggled with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) since she was 5 years old. She is still grappling with the disorder but the obsessions are different now that she's older; instead of having irrational fears of being a "bad" child, she now has problems with perfectionism.

Pain worse after coil fitted
Hi everyone, I had the Mirena coil fitted in November to help with my Endo pain and bleeding. They did say it can take 6 months before it starts to work but the pain has worsened and the fatigue is awful! I am struggling on a daily basis and can't decide whether to wait it out as it has only been 3 months

Tramadol - Anxiety
Hi for my endo pain and pelvic pain I’ve been taking tramadol with paracetamol. I’ve been on this since getting the coil fitted but the pain has been more frequent. This may be stupid but I take 50mg x 1 or 2 tablets 2/3/4 times a day depending on my pain. I definitely wake up in agony in the mornings

Found out my consultant may have been negligent…
Hi all, Some of you might have seen me post on here before about my journey. I had a laparoscopy with a general gynae back in October who left a two sentence report on my file saying she had removed endometriosis spots. She told me that that removal (via heat) was the treatment along with the coil they

Finally got a follow up appointment …
After having my lap in October , another 5cm cyst was found 3 weeks later on ultrasound and I’ve been waiting for an app with the gynae ever since I’ve finally been given a last minute appointment for Thursday with a locum gynae, and I’m so nervous he won’t take me seriously as my last gynae told me

Tissue chunks Mirena Coil
This is my second time around with the coil the first time I was bleeding insanely with large chunks of my uterus coming out. I needed up getting the coil removed as I developed a cyst that popped and was rushed to hospital. Currently I had the coil inserted a 2 months ago I haven’t stopped spotting

Help with managing pain and day to day life? :(
Hi I've recently been diagnosed with Endometriosis and am waiting for an appointment in March.... I've been put on the contraceptive pill that stops your periods. I've been asked to get a coil but to be honest I don't want it. One of my close friends has endo and shes had the surgery to get tissue removed

Potential endo and non-hormonal IUD
I think I have endo, or something similar. I've been on painkillers, NSAIDs and have had an ultrasound that was normal. I am now waiting for my referral to the gyno. I was recommended the birth control pill when I was younger to reduce the symptoms but I don't want anything hormonal. I got the non-hormonal
