I don't get my period, I've been on birth control since I was 16. First the depo shot for 8 years, and now the mirena IUD for about 1 year and 4 months. I haven't had my period since I went on depo. I just can't really point my pain to a certain time of the month, with hormones, since I don't get my period. Is there anyone else that doesn't get their period and gets pain from the endo?

With endometriosis you dont get pain only on your periods, you get pains anytime. Some women get pains when having sex, walking too much etc! Endo is like death, you don't know when you gonna have a good day

I don't have my period anymore either and have endo pain almost daily. Some activities make it worse, other times I'll be doing nothing and it will flare up.

I know the pain isn't only associated with you're period. Just seeing who else is out there that's on a birth control, doesn't have a period, and gets pain
