Progestogen sensitivity / intolerance?
Hi everyone. It's barely into week 3 on combined oestrogen patch and progestogen pessaries. I have such severe physical and mental symptoms that I have stopped all treatment suddenly. This happened before when I tried HRT about a year ago but it took some months for these side effects to kick in. After

Extreme reaction to mirena coil fitting
Has anyone else had a really bad reaction from having a coil fitted? My mirena coil was being pushed out by my body and my doctor thought we should try taking it out and fitting a new one in. I had a traumatic and painful experience where my whole body shut down and was in incredible pain and almost

Post laproscopy - pain and confusion about what next…
Hi everyone, I had my lap a week ago now and they found and removed endometriosis from my pelvis, particularly on the left side and fitted a Mirena coil. When I came round from surgery I was told I wouldn’t be having a follow up appointment as the surgeon had got it all with the laser and that combined

Bloody discharge
I have had bloody discharge for four days, I'm getting very worried. I can't see a gp until Friday. It's not my period as it finished last week. It ranges from brown/pink/ dark pink and red. It looks like I will start a period but it isn't. I did have a thought, could it be my copper coil? It was inserted

Bloody discharge - is it copper coil?
Unusual bloody discharge/spotting I have had bloody discharge for 4 days now. My period finished last week so its not that. I can't see gp until Friday and I'm getting very worried. I have a copper coil that was inserted over a year ago, could this be the problem? Most info says a few months after

Tranexamic acid
My gp has prescribed this as a way to lighten my periods until the coilis fitted. I don't know when that is. I was reffered in Jun, July and gp said a 6 month waiting list Husband is against this as all his research says about heart attacks and strokes. He also said I have lived with it this long I may

Getting pregnant second time round - pcos
Hello, I’m 28 and was trying to get pregnant for 9 years and eventually had my son sep 19, I have always had irregular periods and was diagnosed with pcos a fair few years ago.

THANK YOU TO MY HF Nurse Helen.
Good morning, I'd like to say a few words about my wonderful Heart Failure Nurse. I have to go to the mainland this morning to have my ICD tweeked (I'm sure that's the medical term 😷). And tbh I'm terrified of the journey. I'm not in a good place "mentally" so this sort of thing is a real test. It

Anxiety about driving after ICD op
Hey all. It's been nearly six weeks since I've had my ICD fitted. I have my check on December 13th which will make it 8 weeks post op. I have had a few issues since it's been fitted. Just wondering if anyone felt anxious about getting back behind the wheel of their car. I'm terrified as worried about

Subcutaneous ICD
I've just come across this forum and wanted to see if anyone had any advice or knowledge on having a subcutaneous ICD fitted. Particularly the effects on a young (ish!) female. I've been aware of my condition for a long time and have always managed it fine with no real effects after some initial issues

What is the best way forward?????
Hi everyone I have suffered for 25 years I’ve had numerous interventions and scans etc and no one has listened really I was told to just “put up with it this is what happens” I had a hysteroscopy recently and they cut out some polyps-5 in total and they took a biopsy and they placed a marina coil inside

Donor IUI or IVF?
My husband and I are embarking on the journey of using donor sperm having been diagnosed with NOA. Like I am sure a lot of people do, we put ourselves on the NHS waiting list and began looking into IUI privately. We are due to start our first natural IUI cycle this month, however we had a NHS Consultation

First time using metoject tonight.
hi everyone, the Dr rang me on Friday and to be honest was very nice, he'd read that I'd been under a private consultant and I'd been prescribed metoject, I said that someone on here springcross had shared a link on how to use it and he sorted out the prescription, when I asked about the sharps bin,

Natural iui at 44 … so close to 45
Hi 🙋♀️ well after taking some time and getting over 3 retrieval’s and 3 transfers in 1 year I’ve decided to try a iui. Crazy to do this after iui but after tests to see if I do still ovulate and then being really positive we thought we would try this. It’s crazy low odds but our consultant thought

Hysterectomy date!
Hi! I had the follow up from my lap a month ago this morning, and got the date for my hysterectomy - still 2 months to wait, but at least it's moving in the right direction! The consultant seemed pretty confident that it will still be laparoscopic even though my uterus is, in their words, 'impressively

Being ill is very lonely
Good evening. Not sure if I'm in the right place but after having a S.C.A.D heart attack in 2019 I thought I had recovered well n went back to work. Feb this year was told I needed an ICD. Had it April. It went off once and I felt it "did the job". Then beginning of October it went off 5 times in succession
