Endo- mental heath, pain & coil
Hi, I’m feeling really lost at the moment and need some help as to what to do next. I’ve been in constant pain since January(ish) got out on an NHS waiting list which was super long and was fortunate enough to be able to get a lap done privately end on May. I’m still in pain. The last few days it

*Sensitive post* and worried it will end like last time
So I managed to wait until 6am to take a test and it was a bfp!!! I can’t believe I have a bfp naturally after Ttc for 4.5 years and 6 cycles of iui. We were due to start ivf in September. Although there were no tears and jumping up and down like last time. It would have been my due date in two weeks

I need to arrange travel insurance for an overseas trip. Any suggestions for a good company to try ? I have an ICD fitted and have been diagnosed with VT.

Fed up of hormonal contraceptives
I don’t know what to do. I’ve been trying different ones for the best part of 5 years and can’t find one to suit! I want to come off of hormonal contraceptives altogether but my GPs have always put me back on something. Should I go back to the GP? I’ve written below all that I’ve tried.... I can’t

Did your cycles get longer after fertility treatment?
Did anyone notice a change in their cycle length after all the meds? My cycles always used to be 25-29 days although I haven’t really kept track over the last couple of years while we’ve been doing iui. I have noticed that the first cycle after each iui has been longer but I’m now on day 32 of the second

Does this sound like ENDO?
I also have an
IUD
which has been in place for about a year but this has been going on for much longer so I dont know what to make of that. Does this sound like a red flag for endo to you? What should I do?

My experience.. can anyone help?
This is my first post and I’m a little nervous as I’ve never really done this kind of thing of talking with strangers. I’ve had endo since I was young, I’m waiting for my 3rd surgery. This time seems so different to the other times. So apologies in advance for the long post but this is what’s happened

Positive Merina Coil Stories .....
So I am 12 weeks post lap on Sunday. I had the merina fitted during this and graded at severe stage 4 Endo, adhesions all over the show and 8cm cyst removed and left with some urinary and bowel involvement (whatever that means) as those were the exact word she on my post op sheet. But horray for me,

Hormonal tears
Tonight I let myself cry hysterically like I haven’t in months and I blamed recent break ups/dating/loneliness until I remembered: 1) I haven’t cried like this in months 2) I also cried at glee earlier because they won something (it wasn’t even the main part 😂) So I came to the conclusion these are

Discomfort from a vacant IUD
Afternoon! New here. I have the Copper Coil and have been incredibly relieved by the effectiveness of it, no hormones or babies - what a win! However, I have had some discomfort since it was put in place. Not continuous but noticeable. Sometimes just a niggle but sometimes it's very sore. Also I had

Mirena coil/Hysteroscopy/Polypectomy
I’m 48 years old and been experiencing unusually heavy periods, severe cramping, passing clots etc for last 18+ months - much out of character. My periods have changed from every 28 days exactly to every 3 weeks and last for 7 days on average instead of the previous 3-5 days. I was referred to the gynaecologist
