Butt And Lower Pain During Sex
A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question 💭

I just had sex for the third time ever but for the second and third time, I felt a sharp pain shoot from my butt and lower back. I didn’t feel the pain in my lower abdomen though. The pain was worse off when doing the doggy style. Is this normal during the first times you have sex or I actually have endometriosis.

Has Anyone Ever Tried The Newest Mini Pill, Slynd ?
A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question 💭

I tried 3 IUDs and my body rejected all 3; then tried Norethrindrone and I hated it . My weight changed for the worse and it effected my mood. So I stopped . My doc told me about a newer pill called Slynd . Wondering if anyone else has had experience with this ?

You're most welcome. Incidentally, I'm not sure where you are in your endo journey. Birth control can help, but really they just mask symptoms. It's important that your doctor tell you that it doesn't… read more

How To Feel Hopeful With Endo?
A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question 💭

Any tips on how to keep your spirits up with endo? I was diagnosed September this year by excision surgery but my symptoms have not improved at all and only have became worse. I’m assuming I’ll need another surgery with the Da Vinci to see if any more endo can be found. I was referred to a specialist downstate but the earliest they could get me in was July 2024. My current doctors office can’t get me in for a consultation with the only doctor that uses the Da Vinci until the end of December. I’m… read more

Endo, Solo Travel, Camping???
A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question 💭

At the end of August there is a retreat I want to take but that is a right around the time my period usually is. It's a woman's only Retreat so I would not be going up with my husband. I would be camping for that weekend. I don't want to let endow ruin this for me but I want to feel secure with going before I pay for it. Any suggestions on how I could make a trip like that more Endo friendly?
