Newly diagnosed with Endo & not sure how to go about doctor's appointments- can anyone help?
Hi, in the past 8-12 months I've suffered from extremely painful periods, to the point I was collapsing monthly, even temporarily losing vision. I finally went to the doctor about it (only had telephone appts so far) and she said she agreed with describing it as 'a degree of Endometriosis'. She recommended

Second laparoscopy and getting a coil fitted
Hi everyone, I was diagnosed with endometriosis in May this year after my first laparoscopy. I had an appointment with the consultant who said they found it and got it out but I'm still experiencing painful periods so he's going to see what happened in my last operation and see if there's adhesions on

Internal defibrillator alarm just sounded
This is totally unbelievable - my internal defibrillator alarm has just gone off having had a
ICD
replacement at The Freeman hospital in Newcastle on Tuesday. I phoned the hospital only to be told the Pacing Dept. is closed over the weekend and to ring again on Monday.

Surgery or try other things first?
I have been struggling with suspected endometriosis for over a decade (as many on this forum will empathise with). And after finally pushing harder to relieve symptoms I have finally had a date for a laparoscopy in 3 weeks time. However, I'm incredibly nervous about the surgery, particularly the recovery

OCD and hormones
Hi there. I’ve been stressing a lot the past couple of weeks. I’m 21(f) and just found out I have PCOS. Due to this disorder my bodies hormones have been out of wack for at least 3 years now. To prevent symptoms and pain of this disorder my doctors thought it was best to have the hormonal IUD birth control

Combined pill and endo
Hi, I’m about to go in for my lap and ovarian cyst removal in a few days. I’ve declined a Merina coil as single hormone contraception plays havoc with my long term acne and my pain form endo is manageable. The combined pill has worked really well for my skin in the past and I’m wondering about this

Endo pain from weight lifting
I was diagnosed with endo in December 2020. During my laparoscopy, they inserted the mirena iud. My pain and bleeding has started to increase again and in particular, when I’m doing intense exercise (weight lifting, netball) it makes it significantly worse. All the advice I see is encouraging people

Can one nodule cause so much pain?

Mirena helping or making endo worse?
Hi, I’ve had the mirena coil for 6 months now but seem to have pain throughout the month rather than just leading up to period. Still have some spotting with mirena. Has anyone else found the coil hasn’t helped or made it worse? I’m just not sure whether to keep persevering or if it’s just not working

Mirena Coil removal problems
Hi, went to see the nurse today to get this coil removed. Unfortunately she couldn’t get it out and after 2 tries (very painful) it seems to be stuck. I now have an appointment to see a Dr but I don’t want to go through this pain again. What are my options? I know it needs to be removed, but can I
