Thank you x
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'tā¦ read more
Hi I hope someone can help I've been to my GP he did blood test and my estrogen levels are low I'm 47 it's causing a lot of problems down below he has prescribed 10mg of vagifem weekly to help I was a bit concerned because I said to him I taught that estrogen feeds endometriosis he said it was fine because it is a low dose and I'm not taking it by mouth so it's just helping the problem below has anyone tried this before as I'm getting really depressed cause I've tried all of the creams andā¦ read more
Yes I was talking a low estrogen pill orally, it made everything so much worse than it would have been if I was just using my progesterone implant. The implant wasnāt controlling my bleeding so weā¦ read more
My gynecologist told me that she is certain I have endometriosis as well as pcos, with all my symptoms fitting them perfectly. But she also informed me that it would require surgery to confirm it so that I can get the treatment needed. I canāt take time out of work or college to do the surgery and life is miserable living it in pain and sleeplessness all the time. Itās not just a matter of missing out on work or school, itās the money too. I canāt afford to be off more than a day, and Iāve beenā¦ read more
I can't answer why but I agree that it is ridiculous and unfair. I had the discovery surgery just to get told "yes you have it" and had to have the excision surgery 3 weeks later. Such a waste.
I always see that common symptoms are painful, heavy, and/or long periods, but I have very light and short periods, and my periods arenāt crampy (other than terrible lower back pain), but I often have pain and constipation a few days after ovulation. I have a laparoscopy scheduled for Thursday, so I just wondered if anyone else experienced similar symptoms.
I also had/have extremely light periods with no pain. This disease is effing ridiculous. š¤¬
Iām sure if men suffered from it we would have more answers.
I'm 17 years old right now and have been dealing with chronic pain(abdominal and migraines) since I was 12. It started with dually migraines and then went into daily nausea. I went to every odctot possible and they couldnt figure out what it was. I have been in the ER too often to count. It went over too extreme abdominal pain more in the upper area and then in the lower area also. I was checked for gallstones through ultrasound and blood tests. I also had a CAT scan done and two upper and oneā¦ read more
Love I am dealing with chronic pain I have both I trying to figure out what can help.
I can count on one hand the times that me and my boyfriend have had sex in the last year- sad I know
I just had excision surgery back in May and of course I'm terrified of getting back on the horse... seemed like an appropriate analogy. We have tried once since my surgery after waiting long enough and it still hurt but at the time I wasn't on any type of birth control so we had to use a condom and my fun parts have never agreed with most types. I'm thinking that was the main problem (more likeā¦ read more
Sorry to hear about your situation with your partner. My ex-husband is understanding of my condition and he is still supportive even though we didn't have sex. I believe education for men and eveyoneā¦ read more
Hi everyone! I am 25 and have learnt i have endometrioma in my left ovarian (4cm) and high CA125 level, my doctor wants me on Visanne. I have read so many side effects and therefore i couldnt dare taking Visanne.. I am on Yasmin contraceptive pill instead. My mother told me she also had endometriosis when she was few years older than me and even with endometrioma in one ovarian, she could get pregnant and give birth to my sister.. Could you share with me if you have similar experiencesā¦ read more
I've been on visanne for 6months. Almost 4months having this spot/slight bleeding. The next day right after finishing 6months taking visanne i got slight period. I dont know if it is normal. My endoā¦ read more
I would suggest you start reading up on the immune system and the inflammatory response.
Enjoy.
I did and still do.āŗļø
My gynecologist told me that she felt a pelvic mass on a bimanual exam that suggested to her that I might have an endometrioma or more on the other side of my vaginal cuff. She also noted a polyp on the vaginal side of the cuff that might be endometriosis. Why would a transvaginal ultrasound and a CT scan find absolutely nothing, when I was in so much pain that I needed hydromorphone in the ER to control it?
Sorry you are still experiencing pain after all youāve been through, it feels hopeless at times. Maybe the doctor who did your pelvic exam was incorrectā¦.or maybe you have a lesion where they canātā¦ read more
