IBS or bowel Endo?
This might be a silly question, but I’ve been on contraception since I was 15 (I’m now 22) due to bad period pain which would stop me from doing my normal daily activities and I’m currently on an
IUD
(Nexplanon) so I haven’t had a period in around 2 years and have been free from period pain.

Periods stopping(?)
Hey again everyone, Just wanting to ask if anyone has experience of the Mirena and it stopping periods? How long did that take for you? Did you take the coil out instead? I’ve had once since Dec 2019 and was told it usually stops them by about the sixth month mark but I’ve just had significantly more

Hello everyone. Although I’ve not got endometriosis I do have fibroids. Was diagnosed almost 3 years ago after starting to get heavy irregular periods. Was given the Merina coil and this worked a treat for almost 2 years very little bleeding throughout. Then suddenly started bleeding heavy again. Had

Has anyone stopped the pill completely for less side effects but not TTC?
Hi all, I had a laparoscopy end of 2016 which removed 'superficial endo' although was definitely in need of the surgery due to the pain. I have tried what feels like every pill on the planet and not got on with any. I now cannot take any oestrogen pills e.g. combined due to getting bad migraines which

Follow up consultation - really bad!
So just had our follow up consultation and we were basically told that we should not do any more IVF/ICSI with our own eggs and sperm as there would be little chance of it working. Basically during the last cycle they could see my eggs were really poor quality and fragmented and also the sperm didn't

Private consultation
Hi, I’ve booked an appointment with a private consultant who specialises in endo . I’m hoping to explore treatment options . I’ve never had a laparoscopy, I was diagnosed through an mri which was to assess an ovarian cyst . I’ve only ever been offered the coil and pain killers. I’m keen to get the

I've grown a GRAPEFRUIT!
Hi everyone. I had an ultrasound today, because I've always had super bad periods since I was young (I'm 38 now) where I bled so heavily and fainted/vomited from the pain. I don't faint now, but the bleeding is heavier, more big clots, unbelievable pain, pain when ovulating, pain when going to the

Pain with a vengeance!
Hey, Haven't written on here for a while, ill shorten my story. October 2018 I was diagnosed with Endometriosis after having a lap done, which they then fitted a mirena coil. Took my body a fair few months to get used to it tbh, I no longer get periods and when I do they aren't blood anymore, just random

Irregular bleeding after coil removal. Help
I had the mirena coil removed at the start of August ( a year after I got it put in) to try for a baby. It's now October (over 3 months after it was removed), but no luck yet. Straight after the coil was removed I bled for around a week/ 8 days. In September my period was 9 days long and just now in

I'm new here
Hi I was giagnosed with fibroid years ago as I had heavy periods, had a mirina coil fitted and the periods stopped. Just recently I have been suffering with really bad lower back pain which is not linked to an injury. Has anyone got any suggestions on how to alleviate the pain without drugs? Thank you

A bit of hope for those with low AMH and high FSH ...
Hi Ladies I just wanted to share some positive news which might give others in a similar position some hope ... With low AMH and high FSH we were never expected to achieve high numbers of eggs at collection when starting out with IVF, but we were left feeling really disheartened when only ONE follicle
