Finally received Endo diagnosis following laparoscopy... advice/support for next steps please!
Hi Everyone, I had investigative laparoscopy surgery back in October this year. I finally had my endometriosis diagnosed (it's only taken 18 years, for someone to truly listen), it was removed along with scarring and I had a mirena coil fitted. The validation I had after the surgery was unlike anything

Hello ,I had an ICD fitted to the left side of my chest a good few months back, and I'd like to know for sure if I can safely still weld ?. I only welded occasionally using mig and arc and the more recent inverter arc (stick),I hadn't got round to trying Tig. Does anybody know regarding this ?. Thanks

Should I get frozen embryos PGA tested?
I’m going through IVF using donor sperm.. my first round I had one embryo transferred which was apparently the best quality which resulted in miscarriage at 12 weeks. I now have 5 frozen embryos to transfer.. which the clinic have graded differently to what I see others graded on this forum.. FB23

Awaiting for an ICD procedure
Hi am on the waiting list for a medical procedure (transvenous ICD) and my existing travel insurers (Safesure) wont insure me for a forthcoming trip to France. Does anyone have a recommendation for another UK insurer?

What next? Advice on going abroad and different treatment plans after BFNs and poor egg quality.
A bit of a run down first… 5 years of fertility treatment for unexplained infertility. NHS Put on clomid - didn’t work and never should have been put on it because of thin lining issues. Covid stopped my treatment IUI - highest meriofert didn’t work as my lining wasn’t thick enough Ivf round

One step back again...incredibly frustrated
Hello all. I saw a consultant in September for a diagnostic laparoscopy and coil insertion. However, because I work in the hospital I opted to have it done somewhere different. 3 months later I was accepted at another hospital by a consultant who agreed to do the lap. Which is due on Friday. However

Need to offload for my mental health and thought you nice lot would understand.
Hi lovelies, A bit of background for you: practice husband had Klinefelters (and an inability to keep it in his pants) and I was apparently fine, regular cycle, every 30 days like clockwork just too fat. Always been at the heavier end since puberty averaging about 13st, had risen to 18st during Uni

return to running?
After numerous scans and all the usual tests, I’m of the opinion that my copper
IUD
coil caused the disorder, it was not probably not fit for use beyond 5 years (i was told it was good for 10 years).

Severe pain after coil insertion
Hi guys, I was wondering if any of you had experienced bad pain after having a coil fitted? I decided to get one while I’m in a long waiting list to see yet another specialist as my current pill hasn’t been doing much to help. While I haven’t been having periods whilst on the pill, I have been experiencing

medically induced menopause
I’m only 26 and have the coil, the surgeon has said he wants me to be put into early menopause to treat my deep pelvic endometriosis. But no other treatment has been tried, has anyone ever experienced this treatment and if so what did it do?

To hell and back...
I was diagnosed with endometriosis and fibroid in my late 40s. Pain was horrendous and bleeding would make its way through my clothing. The merena coil was attempted but wouldn't stay in because of my inverted womb. Fast forward a year later I started prostap which helped hugely but is only recommended
