Sudden DEEP Depression and Endo??
History: I was called "possibly infertile" at 17, had my first miscarriage at 18, started depo provera once engaged and had a full term pregnancy at 19. I had a 2nd pregnancy right after, babies 17 months apart, also a depo baby. I had terrible pain all the while, but all anyone could say was I had a

Mirena Coil vs Depo Provera injection?
Hi ladies, I have unconfirmed endometriosis, not had a lap to actually find it but 4 years ago I had a burst cyst that they thought was appendicitis, so had one then with general surgeons, who unfortunately didn't look for the endo! However, all doctors that I have seen are pretty sure I have it. Anyway

Birth control and antibiotics (not worried about being pregnant, worried about the endo pain and growth).
Ok, you know how we are to be careful when taking antibiotics and birth control because of possibly getting pregnant? I am not worried about that, I am more worried about the endo pain if taking antibiotics. Will it stop the birth control ( I just started the Depo Provera shot) from working properly

How long did it take you to return to normal after being on the depo provera injection?
Hi all, I have severe endometriosis and after almost back to back surgeries and after Zoladex was put on the depo provera injection. I think all in all I was on it for 18 months or just over. I just wanted to get a range of how long it took for people to go back to having periods as normal, I know

Anyone thought of coming off Depo Provera because of their weight gain?
I have severe stage 4 Endo. My surgeon could not remove a cyst because it was so badly stuck! I have been on Depo Provera for 9 months now and have put on about 2 stone in weight and have gone from an 8-10 to 12-14 in clothes! I know this injection fools your body into thinking it's pregnant but my tummy

Advice appreciated plz. Am desperate to know what to try next and what is going on with me :(
Basically after suffering since age 10 ever since I started my periods I finally got diagnosed with endo last year March time after an emergency op/lap. As well as endo there were extensive thick adhesions and a very large peritoneal inclusion cyst. My bowel was stuck to my ovary and uterus. Since then

Hormone treatment
Hello ladies. I am seeing my specialist on the 16th. I have had an MRI and I am going to get the results at my appointment. Can any of you recommend a hormonal treatment that has given you some relief? I can not take the combined pill and I wouldn't touch the mirena again with a 10 foot poll! I

I don't know what to do next!
My Endo has gradually got worse and worse over the last 3 years. I used to be ill for maximum 3 days at a time and now I'm basically always in some kind of pain, not to mention horrible hormonal headaches! I've been on Cerazette for a good 18 months now and it just isn't doing anything; I get bleed throughs

Dazed and confused! Bit of a long one, sorry!
Hi everyone! So this might be a bit long winded and complicated! I'm 22 years old, started my periods at 11 years of age and from the get go I had heavy heavy bleeding, painful trapped wind, constipation during my period and cramps. As I got older all of those problems persisted and increased in severity

Coil
I was on the depo provera for 10 years (18 - 28) in order to help control my systems of Endometriosis. My doctor took me off of it at the beginning of this year, as my bone density was very low and suggested that I have the coil inserted. This is something I did not want to go ahead with however, she

Period smell but no period?
Hi all, Sounds awful I know, but does anyone out there think they omit a mild period-type smell from down below during the month and feel damp but has no bleeding? Might be just my imagination regarding the smell and no-one has said anything to me but it concerns me as is not very pleasant. I am constantly

Anyone having the Depo-Provera injection and feel like they are going mad?
Hi all! I have been on the Depo-Provera injection for a month now and I feel so irritable and cross most of the time. Before this treatment I was told that I had the patience of a saint but now I find everybody and everything annoying! I know that nobody at home likes the 'new me' very much. When I

Extreme Pelvic Pain - no diagnosis can be found. Ideas?
When I first got my period at about the age of thirteen, it was relatively light and pain-free. Only at about the age of sixteen or so did I start to get cramps. By about eighteen they were out of control - I would be in so much pain I would end up on the bathroom floor crying and I was taking three

Has my Depo-provera treatment stopped working? Pain, pain, pain
Hi ladies, I dont post on here often so a little background info. My doctor unofficially diagnosed me with endometriosis around a year ago now after numerous visits to him about excrutiating pain before, during and after my periods. He wasnt keen on any surgery and sent me for scans. Althought these
