My gynecologist told me that she is certain I have endometriosis as well as pcos, with all my symptoms fitting them perfectly. But she also informed me that it would require surgery to confirm it so that I can get the treatment needed. I can’t take time out of work or college to do the surgery and life is miserable living it in pain and sleeplessness all the time. It’s not just a matter of missing out on work or school, it’s the money too. I can’t afford to be off more than a day, and I’ve been… read more

Hi everyone
I’m a 19 year old who was diagnosed w stage 2 in my bowel, pouch of Douglas, uterus and cervix! I had an excision late in dec last year and was put on mirena iud. This has helped immensely but I am still in pain every day, and my periods are still awfully heavy! I have been told to take visanne on top of the iud to fix this and to stop getting a period altogether. Has anyone had this experience before? I’m terrified of gaining weight and not sure how I feel about double dosing… read more

I have 2 endometriomas on my left ovary. I was scheduled to have them removed next week but the hospital cancelled my surgery due to the guidelines for the Coronovirus right now. Since my surgery is postponed I’m taking this time to do a lot of research. I’m learning excision is the best method. I’m wondering how likely they are to return or for more to develop if I’m not on anything after the surgery? My doctor said if I don’t suppress the hormones it will grow back but I thought if they were… read more

Hi everyone! I am 25 and have learnt i have endometrioma in my left ovarian (4cm) and high CA125 level, my doctor wants me on Visanne. I have read so many side effects and therefore i couldnt dare taking Visanne.. I am on Yasmin contraceptive pill instead. My mother told me she also had endometriosis when she was few years older than me and even with endometrioma in one ovarian, she could get pregnant and give birth to my sister.. Could you share with me if you have similar experiences… read more

I have been experiencing the same thing all over again. My doctor told that they removed all the endometriosis but I feel like it has come back. I mean is it possible within a year or so that it can return. I believe I had my laparoscopic surgery last year or the year before that. Experiencing pain, fatigue, painful with sex as well as periods.

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
