Does Anyone Else Have Extreme Pain With Sex?
A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question 💭

My boyfriend and I cant have sex because it’s so painful. I got reccommended to go to a pelvic floor therapist. Does that help at all?? I feel so alone in this, and I also have no sexual desire. Im currently taking Zoloft and my dosage just increased to 150mg. Could that be why I have no sexual desire? I feel so lost and alone. Any answer helps.

I hope you are able to get to the bottom of it soon! That’s no fun at all. You mentioned tight pelvic floor, that might be worth looking into along with talking to your doctor about all your symptoms… read more

Pain When Aroused?
A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question 💭

Before sex, when I'm beginning to get aroused, I get pain in the left side of my stomach, my vagina and also my bum (sorry for tmi). I've had the problem for a while but the pain feels more intense then it used to. Its at the stage where I really am not interested in having sex, because there's pain before, during, and then pain after. Does anyone else get this too? And does anyone know why this happens?

Have You Had A Hysterectomy?
A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question 💭

I am considering requesting a full hysterectomy in the coming months. I have been off work for nearly 2 years with no improvement and I am reaching the end of my sanity. I am an active patient at the Pelvic Pain and Endometriosis clinic at BC women's hospital.

Whare are your thoughts,experiences etc on the subject?

A MyEndometriosisTeam Member

Getting ready to have one on Wednesday 5/24. Praying that the surgeon cuts out all of the endo she can at the same time & the pain will go away. Will let you know how it goes. Good luck to you.

Is Anyone Else Super Sensitive When It Comes To Pregnancy And Children After A Hysterectomy?
A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question 💭

It's been almost 3 years since I've had a partial hysterectomy and the subject of pregnancy is a very hard one for me. It's really hard for me to see other women pregnant and also when they have a baby. All my close friends have kids or are trying and it really kills me to be around them even though I'm genuinely happy for them but it's something I'll never experience or have and it sucks. I don't know how to tell them without coming off rude but I think it's noticeable that I go MIA for the 9… read more

Sex Life And Physical Relationship
A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question 💭

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 like… read more
