So many of us deal with pain that would debilitate our lives, if we weren't able to sustain ourselves with some sort of medication to tackle the flair up. But what works the best?

Most of my doctors have put me on Tramadol first and Oxycodone when I explain how Tramadol doesn't do much for my pain. As well as nerve blockers and NSAIDS (Which I limit always to, when needed). HOWEVER, society has a different view on pain medication and I'm wondering if this has made anyone feel uncomfortable… read more

I am having surgery to remove the scar tissue and while I am asleep, they want to put an IUD in as well. I am super nervous about the IUD and want to know if there are side effects, and if the IUD is a good route to go.

Guaranteed its worse on my period but I'm in pain and exhausted everyday :( does anyone else suffer everyday of the month and if so how are you managing things? I'm really struggling to get up on a morning and carry out my daily routine, I feel like if I don't at least sort out my fatigue some how I will lose my career any advice would be great.

Hi there, i was just wondering how long it took for some of you ladies to be diagnosed for me it was 6 years and am currently sueing my old womans health doctor for negligence. She kept saying it was normal period pains and irregular period and i was normal. I just want to hear some of my endosisters stories so can get an idea on what is normal and what isnt for waiting.

What are your thoughts on medical marijuana for pain management? I live in NY and they are opening 3 dispensaries in the works just looking at different options.

Headache, severe dizziness, pounding heart, drop in body temperature, large wave of fatigue. Also nausea and a bit of loopy-ness, if the heading wasn't any indication.
