How can I get rid of this awful shoulder pain from my laparoscopy? It's been a couple days and still killing me, more than my incisions. I've tried peppermint tea, stretches and even went for a short walk last night.

I was just recently diagnosed with endometriosis and the past month I have been having brown spotting for over 2 weeks. Does this happen with endometriosis?

Did anyone end up experiencing spotting or old/brown blood after having a laparoscopy, either, when you never had it before, or it got worse from before?

I have been on visanne for 2 years. The last 2 days in the mornings I have had the dark brownish discharge and today I'm getting some bad cramping.

I find sitting on hard chairs puts a lot of pressure on my underside. I assume because I had endo (now excised) on my pouch of douglas & utereo-sacral ligament that certain sitting positions puts pressure on these areas. It makes working at my desk (home office) for more than 1-2hrs without a long break really difficult.
Does anyone else have this problem? What do you do to combat it?
I unfortunately don't have the money to buy a standing desk.

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 ?

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 and… read more

If you have or have had an IUD what were the pros and cons for you ? Did it help endo symptoms ? How about fibroids ? Or adenomyosis symptoms ?
Thank you !

I stuggle with endometriosis. I am almost three months on Depo-Provera. I have never spotted in the 3months that im on Depo-Provera. 2 weeks ago i had some eggs retrieved and had little bleeding for 30 mins after the procedure. But now 2 weeks later i stared spotting heavily. Any reason to why i could be spotting only now. Or can it be that im Ovulating and that the Depo-Provera hasn’t started working yet after the egg retrieval process.
