Feel lost - need advice on treatment given that pain is back less than two years after laparoscopy. How many laps is 'normal'?
I am 39 and was diagnosed with endometriosis in 2017. After years of telling doctors my period pains matched the symptoms for endo but being told it couldn't be, I finally was ill enough to find a surgeon privately. He was so certain I had endo that he didn't do a diagnostic laparoscopy and went straight

Blue Horizons Genetic Test Results.... Can anyone help explain what this means for me?
I’m just wondering if this suggests I should try T4/T3 combo - would these results be worth discussing with an Endo? Also I have Mirena Coil and Oestrogen patch....maybe ditch the patch? I know I don’t handle stress well and believe prolonged stress caused my Hashimotos... The TSHR - is odd as I am Hypothyroid

Hyperplasia? + Egg donation?
Hello! I went yesterday to the clinic to have my hysteroscopy post-op thinking (rather foolishly) that it would be straightforward and I could get on with the rest of my life, but alas no. I've now found out that I have hyperplasia (but not atypical) and will need the mirena coil (Oh! The irony!) for

Do thyroid, iron and the coil clash ?
Hi, I'm currently suffering alapcia and hair thinning. I was on 150mg of thyroxine and after a blood test I've been reduced to 125mg and I also had a mirena coil in but now had that removed. My iron level was 50 a couple of months ago (taking 2 tablets a day) but now I'm taking iron tablet 3 times a

Migraine - menopause - HRT
Aged 51 now, I have been suffering migraine for 2.5 years. I have a Mirena coil so do not have a monthly cycle. I went to see a private Gynae consultant who said she didn't think I was in menopause but offered me Oestrogen gel to try. Before I tried it, I had an appt with my Neurology Consultant

Mirena coil and cramps strong as contractions. Reason? Too little uterus
Hello everyone. I want to share with you my experience with mirena coil. I have endometriosis and i was asked on pre-operation consultation for laparoscopic surgery of enfometriosis, if i want mirena coil. It's good way how to stop bleeding so I shouldn't have any pain or problems for few years. I said

Pill to mirena
So I finally went private and saw a fantastic consultant who told me my symptoms are 100% endo and some other symptoms I've been having also sound like endo, which had been a blessing to hear after 5 years being messed around by the NHS. Only issue is now I'm back at square one, my life has been great

Confused about hormones
Hi all, I'm wondering if anyone has any suggestions about hormonal treatments for endometriosis. I recently got diagnosed and had surgery, I'm currently receiving drugs to put me in menopause and the doctor has recommended the mini-pill for after I finish this treatment. I've heard from some that progesteron

Need advice
I’ve just found out that I’m pregnant I’m roughly 2/3 weeks? The reason that I’m not 100% sure how far along I am is because I had a little girl 4 months ago and my last period was at the end of February, I was due to have the mirena coil fitted tomorrow so because of that I’ve been taking pregnancy

Did laproscopy/mirena coil help your pain?
Hi all I’m about 8 weeks post diagnosis / first excision (laser) and had mirena coil fitted. Wondering if excision or the mirena has helped anyone else feel relief from pain? So far, it made my pain SO much worse following the surgery and only now has it calmed down to about the same level / frequency

Cramping after lap (Mirena? Healing? IBS?)
Me in a nutshell: Laparoscopy, endo removal and Mirena insertion just over a month ago. I feel like I'm seeing good healing progress now. Cuts are healed over and spotting has calmed right down. However, I seem to still be getting cramping most days. It feels like period pain. It's not terrible but

Post menopause and mirena coil
Hi, has anyone still had the mirena coil in when post menopausal? At what stage did you have it removed? I'm 54 and definitely post menopause but still have the mirena. Doc advises removing it at the end of this year, I'm thinking of removing it now as I've developed bladder problems since December.

Period with Mirena
Hi Has anyone found they still have a period with the Mirena? I thought it would stop my period all together like other pills have in the past. I’ve had it in for a year and 3 months (when I had my first lap with excision) so I think it’s enough time to say it’s settled. I also find that my periods
