Bleeding After Climax
A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question 💭

Does anyone experience bleeding after climax? This is not just related to penetration, and after I have thick clots for about 12 hours. This happens every time, even if it's a few times a week. Should I see my specialist or is this a 'normal' endo symptom?
Appointments are very expensive so would love any advice if this has happened to someone else.

Has Anyone Struggled With Low Estrogen Levels For No Obvious Reason?
A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question 💭

I'm specifically asking women who still have their ovaries and are premonopause are not on any hormone inhibitors (like Lupron). It is so weird to me because it starting showing in my bloodwork after excision surgery and my hysterectomy (complete, not radical) that I have low estrogen levels. I figured it was my body adjusting to the excising of the endometriomas as well as maybe the removal of my tubes, but the low estrogen has continued to stay abnormally low and I am definitely experiencing… read more

Is Anyone Suffering From Bad Depression From Hormone Treatment?
A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question 💭

I have been on hormones to stop periods and attempt to get rid of most of the pain from Endometriosis and PCOS. Although it has helped the pain substantially I have never felt more depressed in my life. When I say I cry everyday, I mean everyday. I go from a major high to an all time low, then get angry! 😢It's really starting to affect my relationship. Am thinking about coming off them and back on pain management but am terrified that I will then loose my job, the one thing that makes me get up… read more

Pregnancy With Endometriosis After Depo Provera?
A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question 💭

Hi all :)
I’m new to this page but my wife & I are ready to have a baby after 10 years. I have always had severe endo pain which can cause me to get lightheaded, pass out for a few min and vomit. Because of this I went on Depo Provera as it was affecting my daily life. I just got off of the shot after 6 years (nervous for the pain to creep back in but I want a baby so bad I’m willing to do anything) and my questions are:

Have any of you taken Depo Provera and gotten pregnant after? If so, how… read more
