Did anyone end up experiencing spotting or old/brown blood after having a laparoscopy, either, when you never had it before, or it got worse from before?
Anytime ❤️ much love Stace xxx
I have stage 4 Endo, my surgeon said to freeze my eggs after the surgery because the hormones used to help extract the eggs could stimulate my ovaries and cause another cyst hemmorage. But I have seen that my surgery could damage my ovarian reserve. Any help or advice would be great!!
I have also read that surgery can damage ovarian reserve. I don't know what to believe as I also read that surgery is helpful before IVF and natural conception.
Does anyone experience hypoglycemia along with endo
so my girlfriend has endometriosis and this is a huge symptom from it. we know the low blood sugar symptoms aren't diabetes, or diet related, so we can only assume that it has to be symptomatic of the… read more

So, I just had my estradiol levels checked and it was a 70 which my doctor said was good. I have NOT felt like I was low on estrogen anyways. I have only used the estrogen patch for the past 16 mths since my hysterectomy. No progesterone at all. 5 mths ago I got a UTI. Does anyone get UTI'S from their endo??? I've only had one other UTI in my life over 20 yrs ago. But I have no reproductive organs anymore and my doctor thinks it's a possibility that endo came back.
I get kidney infections and utis all the time! My gyne said it could be a symptom I get with my endo or time of the month. Your not the only one!x x
Hi everyone
I'm super new here and just came across this site in my bid for research and answers
I'm not diagnosed with Endo but have recently seen a gastro specialist for possible irritable bowel syndrome. I have been TTC #2 for over 4 1/2 years, and everytime I get pregnant, it ends in a chemical pregnancy at exactly the same time every time. I get +ve tests (including low HCG bloods) for a few days in a row, they never get darker then they get fainter, till it's -ve and my period arrives.… read more
In a nutshell here is what i went through. After one of my many laps, my gyne had me try 2 rounds of clomid/estrace/trigger shot. Both failed. The clomid caused cysts. She referred me to ivf dr. Had… read more

I have been taking monthly lupron injections for over two year now with the add back hormone therapy of estrace (started on 1 mg went down to .75mg with in first couple months but now back up to 1 mg because pain returned so trying to see if we can manage that) and also take micronor two days on two days off
So despite nearly two years of being pain free for the most part,… read more
Im currently on the waiting list to have my last ovary removed, my left was removed years ago.
I'm pretty together on the "no more children" however, I know that once my ovary is gone, the psychological effect of the Menapause will convince me that I want a baby.
What I ask is could I have the eggs froze on the NHS or do I have to pay?
Any info would help
Thank you

I work in a corporate office setting with typical cubical seating and office attire dress code. Lately I’ve been having a lot of flare ups on work days, leading to anxiety and stress. I often leave halfway through the shift to go home to change into less restrictive clothing and to use a heating pad. I was just curious if anyone has experienced similar situations and if you discussed this with HR? I did speak to HR and they said to take time off or go to a part-time position for flexibility. Has… read more
Thank you for the advice. I need to speak with HR again to address this now that I know more.
Endmetriosis can grow on organs that would not be removed by hysterectomy such as bladder and bowel and very few surgeons are skilled enough successfully remove every trace of endometriosis so if left… read more
