Hi all, I haven’t posted for awhile. I was finally diagnosed with stage 2 endometriosis in august 2021 after 9 years of suffering. Pain and bleeding just got worse after the lap.

Hello everyone, I am hoping for a bit of help/advice on behalf of my 19-year old daughter, who, after having a laperascopy a year ago to drain her ovarian cysts, has been told they are filling up again.

Hello, After not getting on with side effects of Prostap, my gynae is proposing to trial the Mirena Coil. I'm due to have it fitted at the end of this month. I've heard mixed reviews - from horror stories (re side effects) to success stories! I just wondered if anyone who's had the coil could share
