Endometriosis Diary

My diagnosis was about a year ago but I am suffering more than 10 years. I stopped the antibaby pill bc me and my husband really want a baby. My doctor said it is okay to stop the pill and start to try bc my endo is so small there will be no problem. I am not sure. That was 4 month ago and I am so desperate. I had 2 menstruation in the last 4 months with so much blood and pain, it is worse than before I started to take the pill. There have not been any days without pain. Sex hurts, poopin' hurts, peein' hurts. Painkillers are just like candy. I am so afraid to go back to the doctor (but I know I should and I will). Any recommendation how to live with that pain? My mental health is worse than ever🥺

Pain management sucks more the time especially if you’re trying to convince. Most of our hormone meds try to stop period to “help” with pain. I haven’t gotten a proper period in year

The only thing I know “works” is heat some CBD creams work great. But honestly go to the doctor and just advocate for yourself.

Mostly it’s your decision if this path of kids is worth it. I am having to make the same choice my endometriosis is severe and I am looking into getting a hysterectomy. And it took a long time dealing with pain before I finally let go.
