Laparoscopy next week and very nervous!!
Hi everyone, first time posting here but I've been following for a few months and have found it so helpful reading people's posts! So after years of being dismissed by doctors i finally got referred to an amazing consultant in October 2021 and he couldn't believe I had been left for so long without any

Cerelle Mini Pill
Later on when I got a boyfriend it was used as
contraception
also. I feel that it is negatively affecting my mental health, giving me mood swings and depression. I’m scared to go off it because of my period but I think my mental health is more important.

PVCs have made me almost bed bound at 32
I’m hoping to feel less alone with this. I’m 32 years old, history of VSD as a child, and two weeks ago I was running 5k and weight lifting 6 times a week. I started off with just one or two “episodes” of ectopics when working out (these are a few seconds long with many ectopic beats). These have increased

Total hysterectomy without HRT?
Hi, I had a total hysterectomy three weeks ago for severe endometriosis and adenomyosis. I have been offered oestrogen HRT but I’m reluctant to use it because of the endometriosis and bad reactions to the pill and coil in the past. I am trying herbal remedies and don’t feel too bad. Can anyone tell

Flecainide for VT
Hi, Is anyone taking Flecainide for VT ? I have been suffering with PVCs for the last 3 years. I’m currently taking 10mg of Nebivolol which don’t seem to be working. I have previously taken Varapamil and Bisoprolol which didn’t work either. My EP has suggested trialing Flecainide first before going down

Low libido
I need some advice. I’ve been on the combined pill for a long time now. It’s really starting to bother me that I have next to no sex drive! It’s been like this since I’ve been on the pill. Does anyone know any ways to boost my libido or other methods of birth control that don’t actually affect your sex

Vomiting on pill
Hi! I took my pill at normal time today and it’s the end of my 7 day period. I took the pill at 8:10am and then vomited at 11am-ish. I checked the NHS website and it said to take another pill so I took one between 12-1. I then threw up again between 5-6. This is because I am hungover btw. Am I still
