Complete resection of Endometriosis and Mirena Stage 4 Endo - other peoples experience of Mirena to suppress endo following excision
My specialist put in a
Mirena
after the surgery and I am wondering if anyone has had experiences after a major endo excision surgery and placement of the
Mirena
and if it helped or if your endometriosis returned in the form of Endometriomas or otherwise.

Gluten free??
I also had a new
mirena
coil fitted. I was hopeful that this would be the end to the daily dull pains. Unfortunately this has not been the case. I have been reading online for other remedies that people have used and going gluten free seems to have worked for some.

Mirena coil
I had the coil fitted around 6 weeks ago and I’m due my check up. I bled a lot for around the first 4 weeks and then it started to lighten up, I’m currently still bleeding but it’s more of the browny colour one is this a sign that I’m stopping or does this mean something else??

Feel like I'm going mad!
Dr inserted
Mirena
coil, but I'm still suffering with Pelvic pain, and cramping after intercourse aswell as vaginal bleeding on any kind of physical activity. My consultant wants to perform another laparoscopy to remove the coil, a small cyst on the right ovary and ablation of the uterus.

Need advice, sorry for the long post!
It's been suggested next to try the
mirena
coil, but palpitations seem to be a common side effect of that and I suffer badly with them already due to generalised anxiety disorder and OCD that I am struggling with at the moment, massively fuelled by how bad the endometriosis symptoms are.

Coil worries/laparoscopy update
I only have one concern, I also had the
mirena
coil fitted during my procedure and over the past couple of days have terrible cramping in the lower part of my stomach when I go to the toilet, I'm unsure whether this is to do with the coil or bruising from my surgery?

Suspected Endo
She suspects Endo and wants me to have a laparoscopy and at the same time the
Mirena
cool fitted. I’m not a fan of hormonal contraceptives and only lasted on the pill 2 months as it triggered depression.

Confused after laparoscopy
Does the
mirena
suppress the endo and make it harder to spot? I'll add my paperwork, if that means anything to anyone. Has anyone had similar?

Mirena Pain?
On Wednesday last week I had my first laparoscopy surgery and whilst I was under after a lot of months of trying to convince me to get the
Mirena
coil, I caved and got it.

Laparoscopy on 11th March
Hi all! I had my diganostic laparoscopy on Monday which confirmed that I do have endometriosis. I had the tissue burnt/cut away and a new marina coil fitted as mine dislodged during surgery. I had four incisions made one of which is now infected (My navel). I've had terrible pain from the procedure

jaydess and strange period pains?? i'm confused.
I used to have a
mirena
in for 7 months, 2 years ago, which badly didn't suit; and just hope its not my uterus reminding itself of its old habits with the
mirena
. although the
mirena
was super bad, i couldn't walk and was in 7 full time months of pain.

Advice on radical hysterectomy
I currently have the
Mirena
but that’s not making a blind bit of difference. I’m 33 and have 3 children. My questions are about the surgical menopause that comes afterwards. What will happen to Sex? It’s painful enough as it is but will I lose my drive and become a vaginal bag of dust?

How did you get diagnosed and how long did it take?
Most recently the gynaecologist suggested a
mirena
coil and I'm not sure how I feel about that.

Just had my second laparoscopy with not such good results...
After over 10 years of suffering and countless visits to doctors who told me I just needed to get used to my periods, a and e, consultants, paramedics who thought I had kidney stones, and now 3
mirena
coils in 5 or 6 years, I have now been back in theatre with results I knew would be waiting for me.

First period after extensive lap and mirena insertion - should I brace myself?
My last period, after tri-cycling the pill, ended on the day of my lap - 9th Jan - where they also inserted the
mirena
. So technically I should be due a period in the next few days...

Coil advice
Hello guys, I’m very recently been diagnosed with endometriosis after 7 years of struggling in pain with my abdomen and pelvic area. I’m currently on a waiting list to see another doctor as I was told they couldn’t remove any of my endo during my larposphy as mine is attached severely to my bowel. Before
