Emotional struggles
this is a tricky one and one I feel my partner doesn’t understand - I’m hoping someone can relate… I found out one of my best friends is pregnant at the weekend and I am over the moon for her - myself, bestie and other friends had gone out for lunch and they were all discussing babies and that the track

merina coil - affecting mental health
Just wondered if anyone has had the impact of the merina coil on their mental health confirmed? Had one fitted to help with endo pain. prev had issues with taking the pill due to affect on my mental health. I'm now thinking merina maybe affecting me also. Not sure if I need to stick it out longer

misunderstood peri -menopause treatment
I had a very traumatic experience in my peri menopause. Due to heavy bleeding and clotting in my last 2 years of peri menopause I was hospitalized with an anemia. Given tablets to help stem bleeding and they caused jaundice. Was offered hysteroscopy under NHS however not given the option for sedation

disappointed with symptoms still after 2 surgeries :(
I’ve recently had 2 surgeries, one in January where they removed a small amount of endo and then a more complex surgery 4 weeks after with a specialist endo surgeon. I’m now 5 weeks post op and still suffering. I think my period might be due soon but not sure as the surgeries had messed things up a bit

Chronic Illness Guess Who
Long story short, things have taken a drastic turn. I don't know if it's my Endo causing my health spiral, or a combination what pots or what the fuck going on. Even though the PoTs symptoms I've been experiencing have been going on since I was around 13 (i'm 28 now), in November 2023 they took a nosedive

Help with first steps
Hi. Firstly wow, this forum is amazing. After nearly 20 years of pain (am now 49) I have finally had a ‘vague’ diagnosis of deep endo following an MRI. The gynae consultant says that the scan shows adhesions fusing my ovaries and uterus but anything other than that would need further investigation

What Now?
So I had my laparoscopy last May, confirmed endo, coil fitted. Pain returned after a few months.

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!

IUI vs. IVF
Hi, Firstly let’s tell you a bit about mine and my OH’s situation. We’ve been TTC for 2 years, I’ve had an internal ultrasound, HyCoSy - all fine and clear. My AMH is normal and I have regular periods. My OH’s results are also all normal apart from low sperm count. so we’ve been told to go for IVF

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

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
