To coil or not to coil...
I am due to have my surgery with a BSGE specialist in London at the end of this month, she would like to fit the Mirena Coil during. I have had the coil before and it helped my pain and symptoms for a solid 8 months, but then I had it removed as the pain returned and my mental health started to suffer

Mirena Coil Pain: is this normal?
I had the mirena coil fitted five weeks ago during my first diagnostic laparoscopy where endometriosis was diagnosed. They didn’t remove any tissue, because that’s not how they do it at that hospital; the first laparoscopy is purely diagnostic. I have a follow-up appointment with them on the 31st.

Pain worst when ovulating
Hi everyone, I'm undiagnosed but having laparoscopy at the end of the month. I'm starting to question myself now and worried that it's all in my head. I have the mirena coil which has helped massively with the heavy bleeding and pain but I'm finding ovulation the worst time of the month. Bloating, bleeding

Anybody Else Taking a Statin?
It's been a little over a year since I had 4 cardiac arrests & had a pacemaker/
ICD
put in. Cardiologist started me on Lipitor (Atorvastatin) in February. It worked great, and my cholesterol fell to half in a couple months. I didn't have any side effects from the Lipitor at first.

False memory OCD
Hi all I have suffered with pure ocd for a long time and have bouts of wellness and relapse. I'm currently having a bit of a relapse - cannot stop ruminating on a false memory - many years ago I got drunk whilst I was looking after my niece and nephew- my ex boyfriend was there at the time too. I woke

I haven't had children but I'm interested in the IUD
Hello! I have recently come off the birth control pill Cerelle and I'm looking into getting the copper IUD instead. Does anyone have any information on this as a lot of people keep telling me I need to have children first but my Nurse was more than happy for me to have it if I wanted too?

What Do I Do?
Of all the things I expected to finally push me to post here, I didn't expect it to be something like this. So, I have a friend (Friend A) who I have known for years. We both have been diagnosed with social anxiety. Somehow she talked both herself and I into going to a party. Another friend (Friend B

Advice needed - mirena coil
Hi girls, just after a bit of advice. Had the mirena coil fitted a year ago, was having 2-3monthly bleeds and was hoping they were getting more and more apart. But the past two months I've had monthly bleeds near enough exactly a month to the date. They are so painful but not as heavy as they used to

Feeling so low - just need to vent
I haven't felt this low in a while. There a few major factors in my life that don't feel quite right at the moment, but I don't know how/when to tackle them - my relationship and career being two of them, and I turn 30 in a week! I had some awful pain the other day, searing pain that takes your breath
