It's been almost 2yrs since my hysterectomy, it helped greatly with endometriosis related probs. Only now the what was thought was gerds, is actually likely something called rumination which specialists think is caused by potential Pelvic Floor Dysfunction. I have 6 procesures coming up to get a positive diagnosis. It's exhausting. If anyone else here is dealing with any of this feel free to leave a comment.
Isn't that what they tell u is in your brain (head)bc we have dealt with so much pain over the years??
Has anyone ever bumped their abdomen into something, or accidentally poked yourself in the gut and then had pain? I'm trying to determine whether I've strained my ab or if it is my cyst acting up. I second guess myself a lot because I spent 4 months thinking my endo and cyst was an ab strain that wouldn't heal. However, this pain seems deep (not surface level), and I have to press hard on my stomach to feel it, as opposed to just pressing on the surface level muscle. It hurts when I'm biking… read more
Feelings don't have to be rational. They're you're feelings and it comes from your experiences. They happen and doing what you can to release them will help you in the long run. But I don't want you… read more
I am a 48 year old woman. I have ALWAYS had irregular periods even when I thought it was regular. When I was younger, I bled heavily with lots of clotting and pain. Then about 5 years ago, I started skipping months. Slowly, then longer each year. Stress seemed to be a major factor in it also. July 2011, my ex-husband took his life. I went 9 months without a period. Then in 2014, I lost my mom to pancreatic cancer. I went over 2 years without a period, levels were all checked and even though… read more

Before sex, when I'm beginning to get aroused, I get pain in the left side of my stomach, my vagina and also my bum (sorry for tmi). I've had the problem for a while but the pain feels more intense then it used to. Its at the stage where I really am not interested in having sex, because there's pain before, during, and then pain after. Does anyone else get this too? And does anyone know why this happens?
I cannot believe I’m seeing this! I have had trouble with sex due to pain and anxiety. It was just recently I noticed that now I’m having pain just when I’m aroused.it is exactly the same as you… read more
So hi, does anyone know if there are any ways/tests I can do or get done to see if my endometriosis interferes with having sex? As I don't have a partner but I'm little anxious if I do anytime soon

I am not a medical professional but my sharp abdomine pains seems to be a combo of endo and pelvic floor dysfunction. Took a while for my doctors to check the muscular route
Ok, this is super awkward to ask, but I have to ask. Does anyone feel like, pain underneath the pad of your vaj?? Like soreness?
The pad? I am not sure what that means.
Hello. So I am in really bad lower back pain right now. It is causing bad cramping in my lower abdomen that feels like my uterus is dying. Most people don't know what I mean when I say that, but I figured that here would be the place where people might be able to relate. Basically super achy and it feels like someone is twisting my reproductive organs around.
This started last night with a 60 sec stretch given to me by a PT. I was on my hands and knees and had to tuck my tailbone under me and… read more
I'm sorry you're dealing with that! Sounds like some of my symptoms overlap with that condition, but these specific symptoms I experienced the night I posted that were isolated to that night. I… read more
