Mirena coil
I was diagnosed with endometriosis back in September 2023 after suffering chronic pelvic pain for 3 years , along with severe bloating and abdominal pains. I was given 6 month trail on the prostap injections which helped massively, now I’ve been advised to go on the coil or I will be discharged. All

Thinking about giving up on diagnosis
Hi everyone. I finally had my first consultation at an endometriosis specialist centre. I saw a female doctor for the first time ever since my problems started a few years ago, which was nice. She couldn't believe that my GP surgery wouldn't let me continue with the combined pill and said I would HAVE

Dealing with diagnosis and going forward

Long post sorry
I was officially diagnosed with endo 4 years ago after having my appendix removed and the surgeon seeing the issues at the same time. I have been fighting with doctors for over 20 years to believe that there was something wrong. I have had 6 months of hormone injections that were amazing and sorted

NHS IUI funding and BMI
Hello, we’ve been referred by our gp to a clinic in Lincoln for IUI because of male infertility. I’ve read on the NHS website that they only do IUI for certain BMI ranges. I’m just in the “overweight” range. Does anyone know if I have to be in the “healthy” bmi to go ahead with IUI on the NHS?

financing iui/ivf using donors
Hi does anyone have any advice on how to finance iui/ivf? I spoke to my GP who told me same sex/solo women have to finance the first 8 rounds of IUI privately using unknown donor sperm before the NHS will help. I’m 36 so too old to get discount at private clinic (via share), am aware the sperm banks

T3/T4 HRT Meds before surgery?
Hello lovely people, i hope everyone is managing to catch up on the long overdue sun ;) Sadly, my gynaecologist has found an ovarian tumour which needs to be removed and biopsied. Recovery from this will take between 6-8 weeks. I am in really good health otherwise but do take 150mg Levo and 45mg Liothyronine

IUD expulsion....twice!
Hey, so I was recently diagnosed with Endometriosis after many, many years of being told it's just a heavy period, you'll just have to get on with it - thank you male doctors. So now I have a diagnosis and my GP recommended the coil as a first plan of action. After insertion my coil came out after 3
