Because of my PCOS and endometriosis, I suffer from chronic pain and anemia which has led to significant weight gain (more than 60 lbs, 20 of it in the last 3 months). Now I’m going for a full hysterectomy in April and beginning hrt shortly afterward. I would appreciate any advice and/personal experiences. Thank you!

I can't count how many times I actually fainted today. I spent most of my day in bed with depression consuming me, but I had to be so careful every time I got up because I know I'd just fall right back onto my bed. I didn't have the strength to blow dry my hair after my shower and even showering made me short of breath and dizzy. I started bleeding lightly today, first day of my strange irregular cycle maybe? Never know if I'm just spotting, point is I'm not bleeding heavily. I've eaten exactly… read more

After my first laproscopy last year, I developed a cyst again in April 2023 and I am under treatment since then. I am planning to conceive and my doctor gave me 2 injections of zoladex in 1 month gap to reduce the cyst. I started with 5cm and after 3 months it's 7.3cm. Obviously it didn't work for me but he is too confident that I don't need a surgery and my cyst can be reduced and I can further go for pregnancy. Has anyone been in this situation before where zoladex turned out to be not… read more
