Does Anyone Else Have A Severe Hormone Imbalance? If So, What Are Your Symptoms? And Does It Make Your Endo Worse?
A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question šŸ’­

Iā€™ve been on Seasonale birth control now since beginning of October and so far I think itā€™s helped quite a bit but I still get the hormonal symptoms (and PMDD) anytime my hormones fluctuate such as ovulation time and 10-14 days before my period starts. The fluoxetine (generic of Prozac, 30mg) everyday has finally been kicking in and helping with a lot of symptoms. Not 100% but a good chunk and helps me feel a wee bit more ā€œnormalā€. The Ativan has been helping the panic attacks but the panicā€¦ read more

Is It Normal To Have Endo, But Not Be In Pain As Long As You Are Taking Birh Control? Does That Count As A Milder Form Of Endo?
A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question šŸ’­

I only have endo pain when i am not on birth control pills. Also I have never been able to have sex because the pain is too excruciating for me. Im not sure if that will help to answer the question but i tried :p

A MyEndometriosisTeam Member

Absolutely I had very mild pain while on birth control. The excruciating pain honestly didn't start until right before I got my tubes tied. They found my Endo then and when burnt off and was pain freeā€¦ read more

Do Any Endo Sisters Wake Up Soaked In Sweat?
A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question šŸ’­

Not every day,but most of the week i wake up several times during the night/morning soaked in sweat. I mean my hair,clothes everything are soaked and my room is freezing?!?!? Its the most horrible feeling. My doctors don't know what's causing it. I read online it could be hormonal problems. Just hoping maybe someone else experienced it so i can make some sense to my doctor.

A MyEndometriosisTeam Member

I think in your case itā€™s hormones. For me I have that when I ate sugar the day before weird hašŸ˜…

I'm Thinking About Stopping My Hormone Treatment (depoprovera Injection)
A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question šŸ’­

Hey ladies, I've been experimenting with every type of birthcontrol/hormone treatment (depo,nuva-ring, the pill, visanne) since I've been diagnosed with endo. But I'm considering stopping the hormones, Because
ā€¢ I cry all the time (so emotional) (ive been crying about everything.. Everything!)
ā€¢the depo (currently on) makes me throw up everything I eat. Visanne did the same
ā€¢ have no patience anymore.
ā€¢get stressed so much faster and I can't let things go.

Should I Have Surgery?
A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question šŸ’­

I had surgery for endo 5 years ago. It wasn't by a true endo specialist, but she was pretty good and a lot of the severe pain went away. It's gotten worse over time, but I'm doing okay. I have flare-ups that are bad (not always related to my period) but I also have times when I'm doing pretty well. I do have a pretty constant pulling on my right side, though.

My worse symptom currently is hormonal. I have horrible pmdd/depression. I get my period every three weeks.

I am currentlyā€¦ read more

A MyEndometriosisTeam Member

Thanks! Yeah, it's more hormonal, but I can't be on any hormones, so really there's nothing to control it. :(

Is Light Headedness Common With Endo?
A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question šŸ’­

Hello,

I am very recently diagnosed (under a week ago). I am wondering if light headedness is a common symptom and feeling quite faint? I have 2 cysts and they are quite large. I am seeing a gyno next week and expecting she will recommend surgery. I eat very healthy and drink enough, but do feel quite dizzy all the time. I am wondering if this is possibly feeling quite anxious about it also.

Thanks so much :) Hugs to all.

A MyEndometriosisTeam Member

Thank you! Previous birth control switches definitely had that impact on me as well.

Hysterectomy
A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question šŸ’­

So my Endo is growing back because I cannot take my birth control. It caused a blood clot in my leg and pulmonary embolisms in my lung. Today is six months from my pe and DVT. Anyone have suggestions for endovrelief?!

A MyEndometriosisTeam Member

@A MyEndometriosisTeam Member I am a DVT survivor, I got diagnosed with endo recently and I will have to have a lap soon because of a cyst.
I am wondering what your doctors suggested.

Does Anyone Else Get Pms Symptoms During The Ovulation Phase Of Their Cycle?
A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question šŸ’­

I'm 45, and for the last two years, I've been experiencing surges of anxiety, cramping, and a general feeling of illness during ovulation. Today, I woke up and shortly after felt a feeling of dread and fear, similar to a panic attack. I've been pelvic cramping all day, and not just a twinge in my ovary like mittelschmerz. I had a pelvic ultrasound two weeks ago and it was all normal. I don't know what hormone is causing this, but I wish doctors would test for it to determine the best course ofā€¦ read more
