Sertraline for menopause
Hi, this is my first post. I was diagnosed with a borderline tumour in June 21 following a total abdominal hysterectomy. My consultant doesn't want me to take oestrogen so HRT is out of equation. My GP has prescribed Sertraline for flushes. I started them today and have had nausea and a little bit of

Full Hysterectomy and Excision
I was just looking for anyones experience of recovering from this op. I am due to have it this autumn, and am looking forward to life after endo. However, I've heard different tales about recovery. Some people bed bound for 6 weeks, others up and about. I need to think about childcare etc, and can

Increase in thyroxine
Hi all, After some advice please. With the approval of my doctor, I have just upped my thyroxine from 150 mcg a day to 175mcg, due to really heavy periods, currently on day 40, to see if an increase in medication will help as nothing else has so far. ( I’m on waiting list for a hysterectomy, but

1st post - Endo and adeno.
Hi all. My consultant told me yesterday that it looks like I have Endo and Adeno (with more Adeno than Endo). I can't seem to find very much info about Adeno. I've been struggling for the past few days with a very bloated tummy, loss of appetite, stomach pains and acid reflux. I'm struggling to even

Life Post Hysterectomy
So I had an abdominal hysterectomy with oophorectomy on the 1st of July. I am 6 weeks post-op. Pain on or around the wound is much better though its still a bit sore and hurts if Im sitting too long. Endopain is gone so far 🤞🤞 Struggling big time with energy levels. Have started transitioning back

Post hysterectomy- endo and adenomyosis. Questions welcome!
Hi. So. My story starts like most. Painful, heavy periods but mine started when I was 13. I'm 41 now and was only 'officially' diagnosed with Endo in Feb 2020 after a lap during which they found an ovarian cyst so big it was touching my kidney. They found stage 4 endo all over the fallopian tube and

Endometriosis and ADHD !
Hey ladies. I am currently waiting for my first laposcopy. In horrendous pain at the mo following having the mirena removed after 10 months. It really effected my ADHD because of the progesterone in it. The nurse has said that all other treatments for endo are progesterone based and suggested a hysterectomy

Does hysterectomy and removal of endometriosis elsewhere ever bring relief from symptoms?
Is it possible to get relief from symptoms with a hysterectomy combined with removal of endometriosis from elsewhere with a surgeon who has a lot of experience in this area? It’s an option I have but I’m not managing to find any posts about positive outcomes. I’m not sure if that’s because it doesn’t

The constant pain is making me so low
I’m in the uk and suffering with chronic abdominal pain, following a loooong time with undiagnosed endo and a hysterectomy in 2019. The GP has supposedly tried everything and since I decided not to continue taking pregabalin, they have given up on me. I have a referral to the pain management clinic (

Proteolytic Enzymes... Has anyone had any success with them?
I already take Curcumin and Vit K2 on top of ADCAL supplements and wondered if anyone has used Proteolytic Enzymes. Are they worth the money? I am currently on 7.5mg Steriods and taking Alendronic acid too.

Tranexamic acid - any advice?
In short, I have endo & adeno and am currently treatment free whilst waiting for a hysterectomy (I'm 45). My periods are pretty heavy and painful and a doctor has suggested trying Tranexamic acid for a few months. I just wondered if anyone else has tried this in a similar situation and did it work? Thanks

Prostate-Specific Antigen: Predicting for Biochemical Failure During Salvage Radiation Therapy After Prostatectomy
For anyone thinking about Salvage Radiation Treatment (SRT) this article makes the point that you should have your PSA measured before, during (25th session) and after treatment...my Doctor did not believe this was necessary; I see now that it was. Luckily I had my own tests done at ultra low levels

Post op 3m follow up and hysterectomy query
Hi all I have my 3 month post diagnostic laparoscopy/excision follow up appointment with my surgeon on Friday. The pain has definitely improved, more so that it isn't all the time anymore.

omeprazole, adcal and prednisilone
Can someone please remind me of the mantra for taking these ? I am sure i read not to take Omeprazole with Pred as it affects absorption and know for sure that Omeprazole affects the absorption of calcium and Vit B12. I am currently stable on 5mgs but after 8 weeks my body is still saying no to further
