Does Anyone Have Endometriosis And Any Thyroid Conditions. Are The Two Related?
A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question πŸ’­

I'm interested to know if anyone suffering with endometriosis has experienced any thyroid issues too. I'm not sure if it's related to the severity of my condition but last year I had a suspicious tumour on my left lobe. It was so large and the initial biopsy couldn't confirm cancer so they removed the whole lobe. Thankfully the tumour was found to be benign but I wonder if there's link. I have other smaller tumours on the right side which are being monitored. I'd appreciate any feedback.

Yes, I have Reverse T3 Hypothyroidism. My Endometriosis has become worse in the last few years, and about a year and a half ago, a nodule and a cyst were discovered on my thyroid. We follow them, but all of my biopsies have come back inconclusive. Then, I developed a cyst on my ovary that ruptured. My pain has been severe, and more often than not, ever since. I'm about to have another ultrasound on my thyroid. I see my Dr, soon. I will talk to her about having another ultrasound on my ovaries, asap. I feel like I'm developing a cyst on my other ovary.

I'm glad you brought that up, because they do seem to coincide. I wondered about that, too.
