I had the ablation done and it stopped the heavy bleeding but I’m experiencing severe pain in the right ovary. Hoping it works for you.

I am scheduled for surgery to find out if i have endometriosis. I wonder if it is what i have or something else. I feel just nausea right now and about a week and half away from getting my cycle. Occasional pain in lower stomach that is like sharp, and will get sharp pain through pelvic area also. All around just feel crappy. Anyone have that and its endo?

Just Wanting Some Advice Really.. Could I Be Pregnant?
A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question 💭

Hi ladies, so I had my endometrial ablations in May 2016 and I am now 4 days late on my period, I'm not on any BC and haven't been for a while... I've had 2 periods since my operation and my periods fortunately have always been quite regular, I have done 2 tests, yet both say negative.. Is this possible I could be pregnant or could I just be getting my hopes up or it all be in my head? 😕

Difference Between Ablation And Excision
A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question 💭

Good Morning everyone,
I have seen some posts about someone saying that the doctor must have done an ablation not excision.
What is ablation?
I know mine was excision.

A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question 💭

I have endometriosis, as a result I have an endometrioma on my right ovary. It’s hurt on and off for about a year now. But now it hurts everyday. It feels so tight around the whole area, my stomach has a swollen bulge in it which only started recently when the pain became more frequent. I currently can’t afford surgery to remove the cyst of the endometriosis tissue. My main concern is my fertility do you think I am ruining my chances of having a baby. I am so afraid but I have no money to help… read more

You still have one ovary without an endometria on it! I know that doesnt sound great but it is something! My surgeon said that because i did not have endo in my tubes, i would most likely not have an… read more

Endometrioma Cyst Or Chocolate Cyst
A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question 💭

Diagnosed with endo about six years ago, have always had heavy very painful periods but over the last few months it’s gotten much worse, can’t move my first few days, extreme bleeding (a super tampon +) every half hour to hour or so and a lot of pain going down my lower back into legs. Got an ultra sound and have a 4 cm cyst which doc says looks to be an complex endometrioma *chocolate cyst* with extensive internal echos on ultra sound which I’ve read means when you get these it means your endo… read more

My understanding is that excision surgeons are better at removing them. Apparently, most surgeons who do ablation just drain the cyst but leave the wall there, so it fills up more quickly. That's not… read more

G N R H Treatment
A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question 💭

Hi

I'm unable to have the combined pill and the mini pill causes no nice mood swings. While I was pregnant last year my symptoms all vanished. But have this month returned at 3 and half months post partum.
So I know that when I have no periods I am normal again. I have a gyno appointment soon to discuss treatment. Guessing I need another laparoscopy excision or he may say hysterectomy etc.

Can any of you explain G N R H treatment? And the effects it's had on you... If that is a option for me… read more

The only thing I've heard mostly positive results about is excision surgery. From what I understand ablation can create scar tissues that get in the surgeon's way if you do end up needing an excision… read more
