Tapering from 2.5mg pred.
I have been taking steroids since 2013 and after a few hic-ups/flare ups I eventually got down to 2.5mg daily and was feeling OK. In April this year however I had 4 appropriate shocks from my ICD (Implantable Cardiac Defibrillator) and was admitted to the Royal Bournemouth Hospital where my ICD was

Has anyone had the mirena coil and still experiencing endo pain?
Hi Ladies, I'm searching to see if there are any other ladies out there that is going through a similar situation I am going through. I was diagnosed with endometriosis in 2014. I always had endo pain which was bearable with pain relief at first but got worse so I had an laparoscopy in 2015. Last year

Is bleeding during and after getting the copper coil (IUD) normal?
I’m 19 and never had Children and not sure whether that will make a difference to any of the answers. I recently made the decision to get the copper coil as I’ve been struggling with hormone based contraception alternatives and this seemed to be the next step for me. Yesterday I went through the procedure

Sex and Post Sex Bleeding
13 weeks post lap surgery this weekend. So yes I am trying to get back to normal after hours activities. I had the marina and fitted after previously being on nothing as nothing agreed with me! Anyway, prior to surgery I never used to bleed - maybe a little on wiping the day after but only a slightest

Coil for menstrual migraines?
Has anyone tried or had any success with having a coil fitted to stop menstrual migraines? I'm really nervous about trying anything like that but migraines have been appalling for the last 6 months...

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

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

But horray for me,
