Suspected endo - any advice?
Hey guys, Hope you are all keeping well. I've just had a consultation with a gynaecologist yesterday regarding some fibroids they found last year through an ultrasound. She was really lovely and empathetic, said she has similar issues herself and like me, didn't't get on too well with cerazette, which

Hi! First post, can anyone offer any advice please?
Hi! My names Sam, I’ve been on here for a while but first time posting! I got diagnosed with endometriosis in may 2019 after many years of problems. I’ve had 3 laparoscopies within 18 months and tried different pills and stuff to stop my periods, but they never seem to agree with me and my periods still

Brown staining
Hi all, Has anyone experienced a brown staining during their 2ww on progesterone pesseries ? We had IUI treatment 11 days ago and the brown ' stuff ' has been a few times a day since day 3. It's seems like it's when ever a pessary is due or there abouts so we've started using them every 10 hours to

Appointment - coil/pills
Hi guys, I’ve got my second gynae telephone appointment this evening. I know they’re going to want me to have the coil but I’m really reluctant to for a couple of reasons. 1. Even having a speculum for smear is very painful so I’m terrified insertion will be excruciating and 2. I’ve heard you can have

Endometriosis flare up?
Good morning, Just wanted to pick your brains about endometriosis. Back story first... I had a laparoscopy in December 2019 to remove ovarian cyst and zap endometriosis away and then had copper coil fitted as surgeon recommended. 12 months later I still had crippling cramps, daily, heavy periods and

9 dpiui
Currently in 2ww after IUI 9 days ago. This is my second IUI and the wait is driving me insane. I feel very different this time round, last time the crinone caused me to feel dizzy and sick and I felt very pregnant with sore boobs. It was a real disappointment when it didn’t work.

Hair loss and acne
I had the copper coil fitted 4 weeks ago because I don't get along with hormones. Since then my hair has been falling out in clumps, im fatigued and I am getting hormonal acne all over my chin which I never get!? I'm at the point where I'm genuinely scared to wash my hair in case it falls out anymore

Life after a negative lap
Haven't been active on here for a while but thought I'd offer an update, maybe this might be helpful to anyone who has a laparoscopy that finds nothing. Had my lap in September and felt absolutely awful when they told me they didn't find any endo. I felt like if they couldn't identify the problem, it

Positive test!
Hi everyone. Hope you’re well. I’m 42 and on my fourth IVF ET (FET) after 6 IUI attempts. I’ve had three pregnancies all ending in miscarriage at ten weeks. Today I had a much stronger positive than I’ve had at this stage before (11 days post ET) and face an agonising wait for the scan (everyone so far

IVF success with bad response
Hi, we are due to start our 3rd round next week hopefully. I did not respond well the first two rounds (I am 39 & have very low egg reserve), first round only 3 follicles so consultant changed from IVF to IUI, as said she felt wouldn’t get good enough eggs for IVF. Then the second round only 1 follicle

Speech problems after cardiac event?
Hi all, had a cardiac arrest just before Christmas. Had an ICD fitted and been started on a range of meds which have (thus far) made a massive difference to how I feel. However, one issue I have been struggling with since my event is my speech. I really struggled at first remembering words and my spelling

Hi, I’m hoping someone came help! I had my first laparoscopic surgery last February and during my surgery I got the marina coil fitted. I had some bleeding for about 3-4 weeks after the surgery but literally nothing since... until about 4 weeks about when I was bleeding for about 2 weeks on and off..

Hello there, Apolgoies in advance for the long post, I'm a bit lost and struggling with what to do next, so thought I would post on here and see what happens.

Back To Back IVF / IUI
Does anyone know how long we need to wait between rounds of IVF/ IUI ? I have no embryos in freezer so it would be from the start again. I got a BFN on Friday & AF arrived today . ( happy Mother’s Day to me 🙄 ) Ideally I’d like to start treatment before the world opens up again and I’m back to work

Mirena Coil removal issue
Hi all, Me and partner have decided we want to try for a baby. So I’ve been for my coil removing today at the doctors. But unfortunately the doctor couldn’t remove it as she couldn’t find the strings, I thought this would be an issue as my past smears my strings weren’t located. I had to have ultrasounds

Problems with the copper coil IUD
I had the copper coil inserted beginning of last month and since then, I have been having very heavy and long periods that last 10 days with spotting in between. It has been really painful too with random cramps here and there. But my biggest problem is that I am now unable to hold my urine, my bladder

Adhesions no endo found but said could be in the muscle?!

She said it could be in the muscle and/or could be adeno it wouldn’t be able to say for sure unless it got
