injections for endometriosis
Hi all, I’ve suffered with issues since I started periods at 14 and at 16 was told I had PCOS which they did nothing about ever since. Only 3 years ago was told about Endometriosis and after referral I have deep infiltrated endo on my bowels and superficial on my uterus. Since then I’ve seen so many

Depo and anger
Hi, I've been on the depo birth control for around 9 months. When I first started it was so angry, and now I've noticed when I'm about a week away from an injection I am just so angry, no real reason, zero patience and it just feel so unlike me. Has anyone else experienced this?

Mirena coil
Hi everyone, new here🙂 I'd say after two illnesses since last year (suspected Covid or bad flus) I've gone from mild to moderate cfs. My periods have also taken a hit, causing me severe mood changes, fatigue/ crashes and heavy bleeding. I am currently not on any birth control. My mum has dealt with

I was lost too..
Hello there I truly feel your pain. After I gave birth to my daughter in 2008 I started to have alot of new pain and bleeding. Was diagnosed with endometriosis. The bleeding was severe and drained me of energy. I was put on numerous contraceptive pills, implant, coil nothing seemed to work. 8 years later

MRI - what can I expect
hi, I’ve got an MRI next week as my consultant thinks I have endo stuck on my bowel. I’m at a specialist centre so have been told they will hopefully be able to see this if it’s there as I’m trying to hold off on surgery for now as currently my symptoms are quite well controlled on the pill I’m taking

Possible endo/rejected referrals
Hi everyone. I'm new here but wondered whether anyone has had a similar experience to me. A few years ago I was on the contraceptive pill, when I noticed that my periods were getting later and later. I used to get the normal bleed during the seven day break of not taking the pill, but then I started

Spotting while on the pill to stop periods - cancer risks??😱
After taking the pill for 5 months, I have spotted for a month and had to stop taking the pill for a week (triggered periods). Then, again four months later, spotted for a week and had to stop taking the pill for a week (triggered periods, which led to pneumothoraces for the first time of my life). I've

Endo, Mini pill and symptoms!!
Hi all! I have been taking the mini pill (desogestrel) for 3/4 years now, it stops my periods completely and worked wonders at the start but for the past 18 months, I am experiencing symptoms around the time that (I think) my period would be due including pelvic, lower back and groin pain, acid reflux

24 follicles - 13 eggs
I just had my second retrieval. The first I had 20 follicles at my last scan and they retrieved 18 eggs, 16 mature. This time I responded better to the meds (possibly because I was not on birth control before stuns). I had 24 follicles at my last scan before trigger but they only collected 13 eggs

Has anyone had a period longer than 7 days? 🤔
Hello everyone, Keen to know your thoughts on this as I await a GP appointment. A quick backstory: I’m 26 years old and have PCOS. From aged 15 to 20/21. I was on the pill to regulate a period since I’d never had one ever before. Since stopping I’ve had a period 16 times, so that’s 16 times since

In-active endometriosis
I had laproscopy 4 days ago, they removed a chocolate cyst and found in-active endometriosis by my ovary. They didn't remove this inactive endometriosis, what is in-active endometriosis and will that reactivate? I'm currently on the pill for symptoms but concerned when I come off the pill symptoms will

Contraception
I have struggled to find the best method in
contraception
. I had the implant but it just didn't agree with my body, periods started to be around 3 weeks. I then went no the mini pill, which same thing happened. They then switched to combined and my moods became so low.

Being Ignored and feeling crazy!

what would you do?
Hello on this lovely sunny day! Please can I ask for some advice? I’m 5 years on after being diagnosed with sero positive RA. I am meant to start medication number 7, nowish. I’m reluctant. Most medications make me feel very poorly 🤒 I started out with all this, I believe due to a contraceptive
