Experiences with

Ovary removal

Hi 👋 I’m new here. Hoping I can get some insight. I have had about 9 months of prostap injections and found my endo/ adeno pain improved so much. A couple of months ago I started HRT to go with the prostap and have found my pain has increased a bit. From what I’ve read this is fairly normal with endo

Hi I am 3 weeks post Ovary and Fallopian Tube removal performed Laparoscopically. After surgery my Consultant confirmed that Endometriosis had basically stuck my ovaries to my pelvis. He advised that I shouldn’t suffer from any further Endometriosis issues but I do still have uterus.

Preventative ovary removal was suggested, but I wanted to avoid surgical menopause so opted to postpone that. Now i'm 'properly' peri-menopausal i'm considering my options.

Hi all I have recently asked about experiences of the Mirena coil following ovary removal, bleeding etc. Consultant unable to find threads it has moved higher in my uterus. Radiographer said that I won’t be able to find threads. Awaiting doctors opinion for it to stay or go.

I am on the waiting list for excision surgery, cyst removal, possible ovary removal, and bowel resection. I was on zoladex for 6 months which ended in January. I loved the zoladex, I had minimal every day pain, periods were mostly stopped, I had energy and felt like me again.

Hello all ❤ I had my surgery on Thursday. Does anyone have any advice to help me recover fully and well? (I'm already using estrogen patches and gel so I don't get a hormone deficiency). Endo was in uterus, ovaries and pelvis, plus on bowel. It's been a huge 23 slog, taking 20 years to get an endo diagnosis

I was diagnosed B12D, surviving on starvation rations from NHS for a few years, got really sick after major Gynae surgery likely due to anathetics / antibiotics, had issues with memory, vision, tinnitus, breathlessness, fatigue, MS hug, loss of balance and numbness/ weakness in legs. Neurologist said

Hello I'm hoping someone could give me advice or be able to provide some support during this tough time which my wife is going through. I'm doing my very best to support her but feel like I can't do enough most of the time. I know we are lucky in that we have private medical insurance through my work

Having a huge cysts on both ovaries 1 was 20cm and the other around 8 cm it was decided it was best to get rid of both my ovaries too as this was the 3rd time i had surgery for endometriosis. My consultant has said i shroud wait a month before i go on HRT, due to blood clotting just after surgery. I

I felt like I was spinning my wheels, so I basically cleared the slate and I am starting all over. I went through surgical menopause in my early 40s and now I am 58, so I am trying to figure out sex hormones as well as thyroid. I know I need adequate amounts of estrogen and thyroid to feel well. My problem

I’ve been on this forum for a while but this is my first post and I’m hoping you can help me. I had a gynae appointment last Thursday but couldn’t see the Endometriosis Lead consultant (who treated me before, did a lap resulting in a right ovary and Fallopian tube oopherectomy 3 years ago) I’ve experiencing

Hi there wondering if anyone out there has any advice. I had a bilateral salpingo oopherectomy 10 weeks ago. I was told after this op that everything should be good and I would be Endo free. My ovaries were “stuck” to the pelvis cavity. During the laparoscopy my surgeon took biopsies and also looked

Apologies in advance for the long post but I’m feeling very unsettled. I am nearly 6 weeks post lap which included removal of ovaries and tubes. My consultant came to see me whilst I was still in recovery to tell me that he had found my ovaries were completely stuck to my pelvic area by endo and he

Hi all, after surgery I went into surgical menopause HARD and was put straight on HRT patches. I now have a diagnosis of clear cell carcinoma Stage 1c, shortly to start chemo. They asked what meds I was on in the appointment and I forgot to mention the HRT as I don't think of it as meds as such. I'm

I was reading the 'Supplement timing' post which appeared in my daily e-mail this morning and one of the replies from greygoose raised a good point. In the past I was mildly low with my calcium and since going through a surgical menopause in October 2021 and having a DEXA scan which showed mild osteopenia

44, I have lots of fibroids three very large ones and one in particular that is 20cm in diameter and have an enlarged uterus the size of an 18 week pregnancy. there is also a possibility I may also have endometriosis as well. Been MRI which all came back fine, and will being having a total hysterectomy

Hi, I’ve recently had total hysterectomy and oophorectomy with extensive excision of endo. I’ve started HRT (oestrogen gel & progesterone tablets) but I’m experiencing pain in my lower back and legs like I used to get with endo, has anybody else experienced this, and if so how did you manage it? The

Im a few years post hysterectomy and ovaries removed and been have had bouts of severe pain in my left lower pelvis and bowel issues, resulted in referral to endo specialist again. MRI has shown a ‘pseudo cyst’ (looks to be old debris and blood Incase in scar tissue?) measures 6x4cm. Possibly left from

Hi there, i was on Femoston 2/10 few months after an ovary removal because I had a lot of endometriomas inside my ovary ( had two scepsi because of them few years ago) I have the left one but ovarian reserve is low.

Hi everyone. I was diagnosed end of 2020. Stage 1c endometriod adenocarcinoma at the age of 41. I was told I wasn't allowed HRT and assumed they meant forever.. so I figured out ways to help my body get through the menopause. Now just over a year later I'm doing great. I'm waiting for my yearly ct
