Endometriosis???? HELP!!!?

Question

OK ladies... does anyone out there have Endometrosis?? What were your symptoms? How did you descover you had it??? Where exactly in your body did you feel the pain??? I have Cervical Dysplasia but i was told that there are NO symptoms with that??? What is wrong with me then??? I am having plenty of symptoms..... Ex, Cramping before and during my period (i didnt really have cramps before) pelvic pain, constipation, pain during and after intercourse.... Any thoughts or ideas of weather or not this could be Endometriosis?

Answer 1

OMGoodness you sound just like me!!!! I saw my doc and I have really bad oviran cysts. He also said I have a mild case of endometrosis. He told me if the pain contunied to get an ultrasound. It came up with notta.
So I suggest you do what I was told to do: Take Motrin 1-2 days before you start your monthly then all the way trhough your cycle. Of course if your irregular this will be very hard. You should know your body well enough to know the signs that its coming. Also I know this takes so planing in your part but 1 hour before intercourse take some motrin with a full glass of water. I say motrin because it is a pain killer and a antiinflamatory. Your gyno can perscribe some strong ones like 800 mg. I was told to nevery drink cold stuff on my period (by a friend) and to drink warm tea to help ease the pain. Belive it or not this does work. Being that summer is heading our way I sugest only drinking sligtly chilled with no ice.

I know all this is so hard but you will be feeling better in no time!!!

Let me know how your feeling and please keep in touch if you need more info!!!

Answer 2

I had:

1) Cramps for a few days before my period started and throughout my entire period
2) Severe, unbearable, debilitating cramps once my period started
3) Extreme bloating
4) Severe constipation with rectal bleeding
5) Incredibly painful bladder during my period whenever I urinated and difficulty getting up off toilet due to lower abdominal pain
6) Would've had pain during intercourse had I been sexually active at the time
7) Lower back pain
8) More pain on my right side throughout the month
9) Nausea
10) My whole entire abdomen was swollen, painful, and sick.
11) Heavy periods that lasted 8-10 days.

You could very well have Endometriosis. Get it diagnosed and treated before it gets as severe as mine did.

Answer 3

I was just told by my doc that he is almost possitive that I have Endo.., and I explained to him that I dont have heavy bleeding and my periods are light and irregular but I have very bad cramping..like labor pain cramping...he said it is definate Endometriosis...he said another symptom is yeast infections too and I have had three in the past 4 months and I have never had them before..what my doc is going to do is a "laproscopy" its where they go in the belly button with a camera to see if you have it or not and if you do they can zap it out right there and then....so I would talk with your doc.

Answer 4

I have a slight case of it. I would bleed extremely heavy and have cramps so painful that I was admitted to the hospital 4 times. They gave me an ultrasound and said that my case wasn't that severe and they put me on birth control which made my period lighter and took way my horrendous cramps.

Answer 5

My mother has it. She use to go into the hospital because it was so bad. She had a few operations as well. She was cramping and burning 24-7 the kind where it's hard to even breathe or move.

Answer 6

you bleed all the time, after time goes by you start lookn pale almost anemic, if enough time goes by you will get almost ungodly labor pains and you can pass a huge clump. You may have 2 get a D&C or even your plumbing removed. so go get that checked out. I dont think you have it though. I would just get tested for everything. bet safe that sorry.
