Hi all, bit of a strange one but I had my laparoscopy in March, and I've continued to be in pain since then. This was at my local hospital, not a BSGE centre. I haven't been impressed with the gynae who lied and said I'd agreed to go on the pill rather than giving me a lap, then didn't tell me all that

Tilted cervix but not tilted uterus?
Hello I've tried googling an answer but can't find one. During a smear /colposcopy I was told that I have a tilted cervix, they explained this could be the reason why I have alot of pain when speculum are used. They they applied pressure one side of the speculum and the pain did ease quite a bit. But

Alternative treatment
Hello, I was diagnosed with endometriosis over 20 years ago and had laser surgery to remove what they could and had my cervix quarterized. I've had 2 children and symptoms were manageable for a while. However over the last year things have been bad, daily pain and bleeding. I've had scans and been diagnosed

Fed up and can’t cope with it anymore.
Was put on the copper

. Had heavy bleeding on my periods was having to change a large night time pad at around 2am every morning because I’d soaked through to the bed. Morning was like a murder scene. And I was in a huge amount of pain during it.

Pain in early pregnancy
I really hope this post doesn’t upset anyone struggling to conceive. We have been Ttc for 4.5 years, had 6 cycles of iui one of which resulted in miscarriage at 6 weeks. I’ve just found out I’m pregnant naturally the month before we were supposed to start ivf! I’m 5+5 weeks today and have been getting

Little response on IVF lite drugs :(
Hello, I'm wondering if anyone has been in a similar situation or can shed any light please ... I'm on my 6th attempt of IUI, but this time we decided to try it on a similar drug regime to that used in IVF lite, so that if this didn't work and we go to IVF next, it would give us an indication as to what

Coil check up/string
I had my coil fitted in January of this year (2019) but I haven’t been for a check up at all since I’ve had it done as I’m so scared because it caused me a lot of pain when fitting. Is it painful getting it checked out?? Also should your partner be able to feel the string bit when having sex? He’s says

Tapering from 2.5mg pred.
I have been taking steroids since 2013 and after a few hic-ups/flare ups I eventually got down to 2.5mg daily and was feeling OK. In April this year however I had 4 appropriate shocks from my ICD (Implantable Cardiac Defibrillator) and was admitted to the Royal Bournemouth Hospital where my ICD was

Has anyone had the mirena coil and still experiencing endo pain?
Hi Ladies, I'm searching to see if there are any other ladies out there that is going through a similar situation I am going through. I was diagnosed with endometriosis in 2014. I always had endo pain which was bearable with pain relief at first but got worse so I had an laparoscopy in 2015. Last year

Is bleeding during and after getting the copper coil (IUD) normal?
I’m 19 and never had Children and not sure whether that will make a difference to any of the answers. I recently made the decision to get the copper coil as I’ve been struggling with hormone based contraception alternatives and this seemed to be the next step for me. Yesterday I went through the procedure

Sex and Post Sex Bleeding
13 weeks post lap surgery this weekend. So yes I am trying to get back to normal after hours activities. I had the marina and fitted after previously being on nothing as nothing agreed with me! Anyway, prior to surgery I never used to bleed - maybe a little on wiping the day after but only a slightest

Coil for menstrual migraines?
Has anyone tried or had any success with having a coil fitted to stop menstrual migraines? I'm really nervous about trying anything like that but migraines have been appalling for the last 6 months...

*Sensitive post* and worried it will end like last time
So I managed to wait until 6am to take a test and it was a bfp!!! I can’t believe I have a bfp naturally after Ttc for 4.5 years and 6 cycles of iui. We were due to start ivf in September. Although there were no tears and jumping up and down like last time. It would have been my due date in two weeks

Fed up of hormonal contraceptives
I don’t know what to do. I’ve been trying different ones for the best part of 5 years and can’t find one to suit! I want to come off of hormonal contraceptives altogether but my GPs have always put me back on something. Should I go back to the GP? I’ve written below all that I’ve tried.... I can’t
