It doesn’t help when doctors fob it off as ‘just bad periods’ for years 😕 the NHS waitlist was so long I had to go private which cost over £6k for my laparoscopy.

I had hysterectomy at 29, endo was everywhere. Was told by my gp for 8 years I had IBS and given peppermint capsules until I saved and went private.

I can't even get the operation to check mine as I've had to be on contraception to stop my periods which makes me gain weight but I have to lose weight for the op, but I can't... :(

I had my surgery in March. My pain didn’t go, it worsened. My consultant told me there’s nothing he can do and to keep taking ibuprofen. So yeah, it ain’t nice.

I’ve suffered with the worst period pains and heaviness for my whole life. I got told it wasn’t normal but there wasn’t anything they could do. I then pushed for a scan which showed a small cyst **
