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

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 wasn’t controlling my bleeding so we… read more

Endometriosis Or Adenomyosis?
A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question 💭

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 one… read more

Should I Put Endometriosis On My Health Form If I Have Not Been Given A Written, Proper Diagnosis, But On Treatment For It Anyhow?
A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question 💭

Okay, so hear me out, ladies. I know that question probably sounds like I'm someone who self-diagnoses or something like that. Let me explain myself; I'm on birth control, the only form of treatment available for me, and I've had symptoms for about 6+ months. I'm fairly young, and live in a fairly small town with doctors that really do try their best, but can only do so much. My doctor feels that I am too young to have a lap, but did tell me when I first started my medication that, if it helps… read more

Can Mirena Coil Mask Endometriosis During Laproscopy
A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question 💭

Hi I have the mirena coil in place and I'm due to have a laproscopy in 2 weeks. I was just wondering if the mirena masks the endo? Does it make it harder to find endo during surgery?

I agree with MissCaitlin. I was on depo during my surgery and my doctor found tons of endo. I think it will depend on the skill of the surgeon. I hope it all goes well!

Has Anyone With Endo Had The Covid 19 Vaccine ?
A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question 💭

Do you deem it safe to do the Covid 19 vaccine ? Or will this have any impact on the endometriosis?

A MyEndometriosisTeam Member

Got 2 doses of Pfizer and no issues, just delayed ovulation after the 2nd one which seems fairly common on my fertility app (depending what time of your cycle you get the dose) 🙂

Arm/wrist/hand Pain With Endo?
A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question 💭

Since about 5 weeks post surgery (on day 3 of my 1st cycle), I have had extreme pain that worsens at night...feels like endo pain, but it's located in my arms, wrists, and hands, to the point that I can barely move them, and they swell up a little, too. Does anyone else have this issue? It could be totally unrelated, but I wanted to see if anyone else experienced that. I'm not on any medicines or anything (I've seen ladies on here complain of arm pain after getting a shot, but I haven't had a… read more
