The pain gets so bad I so consider going to the ER I hope this gets better
I rlly thought all this was normal until now. Have been experiencing terrible symptoms and finally at age 23 I’m gonna get it checked out. I
There are days I wish my life would end…it’s THAT bad 😞
Relatable :(
I feel you
Exactly 😢
💔😢
On top of all this i have sciatica which i believe is sciatic nerve endometriosis. I sometimes limp and am unable to walk. OCPs have helped much but i still have severe episodes occasionally. I am going to try the continuous pill use to see if it completely eliminates the painful episodes
Please make this pain stop. 😢
I can totally relate. So sorry you have to endure the profound suffering. 💕
Literally trying to get through my day and the only thing helping is just trying to rationalize and process what my body's going through right now
1. Heat bottle
2. Pain killers antiinflammatory
3. Blanket around you or covers and inside them a pyjamas
4. A comforting movie on tv
5. Icecream (Unless you'll barf)
6. Tea? Machatea maybe?
@@Vixinafulthey are so cute reccomendation but the problem is that ı cannot walk actually.Movie or ice cream cannot solve this problem
I have endometriosis stage 3. For my left hip pain I stick to Turmeric only, and fish oil , random multi vitamin (no Tylenol, no ibuprofen) Workout: pelvic therapy exercises. And a very green plant base diet and prayer. Sorry It's not a cure. But you have too make the life choice of surgery or no surgery, I think, (sigh) I probably will eventually get the surgery, I'm scared too, due to the fact it will weaken me (my immune system).
How did you get diagnosed without surgery?
@@sophieb5440 hi, I can’t answer for the person you asked but I was also diagnosed without surgery. It took 20 years, and no doctor would take me seriously until finally two of my friends got fed up and went with me to an appointment. They had to convince me to go since at that point I had given up and was very traumatized by the gaslighting, apathy, and condescension I had experienced from multiple doctors over the course of my life. I was so worn out, but my friends advocated for me. My friends are husband and wife, so when it was time for the exam only she came with me into the room. I described all my symptoms and my friend would follow up to each of the doctor’s responses with more questions and made sure there was no opportunity for the doctor to prey on my vulnerability. At the end of the appointment I was diagnosed with endometriosis. The doctor said, “If it walks and quacks like a duck, it’s a duck.” After 20 years of brain fog, chronic fatigue, severe blood flow, and pain so excruciating it had caused me to lose consciousness multiple times I was FINALLY taken seriously and given a diagnosis; however I don’t believe for a second that if my friends hadn’t come with me that day that I would have gotten that answer. I am extremely blessed to have them in my life.
My advice is to bring someone with you to the appointment who doesn’t take anyone’s bullshit and can advocate for you. The more the merrier. Doctors love to gaslight and condescend people with endo when they are alone, but in a group it’s much harder. Make sure you plan what questions and follow up questions you want to ask before hand. You need to prepare yourself to make a stand, which is incredibly exhausting, but with someone else with you it becomes more bearable. Hopefully you can get an outcome like I did and finally get acknowledged . You’re not crazy!!!! Don’t give up ❤️
2 years since I had regrowth make itself known and major pain (7 years since my last laproscopic surgery to remove endo). After months of waiting, an MRI scan, appointments at Gynae, I am pleased to say I am finally awaiting my specialist to have her meeting with a multi-discipline team to discuss what sort of surgery I am due to have. The pain is at it's most unbearable and I've been told the surgery will be a long one. I am now menstruating every day and taking a variety of pain relief. I may get put onto zoladex after the surgery. I would do anything to not have to endure this pain. I hope one day endometriosis is taken much more seriously and we can end the needless suffering 😢
Awesome - I have been waiting for you guys to drop a video on Endometriosis....Very cool
Come to think of it I haven't felt the sudden movement on the lower part of my abdomen these past few months. I just want to thank you Dr Iyhere for all you do. Ever since the day I met you on youtube my life has been some worth different.
My hurts so bad that I can’t move, I’m getting more familiar with my body now where I can tell when it’s coming I run and pop pills before it hit, my doctors wants to put me on birth control until I hit menopause 🙄😞😞😔😔😞😞😞😞😔😔😫😩😩😩
I have severe vaginal pain before and during my periods i cant even move or get up from bed. Does someone know is it because of endometriosis? I did take a scan but everything is normal so i dont know what to do
The pain is ridiculous I’m on lorissa and still having pain. I had hysterectomy and one ovary left. Will the pain stop going into menopause?
My doctor said most people have little to no pain after menopause, but some women do continue to struggle with pain and other endometriosis symptoms after menopause. He said for some people it's sadly a life time disease 😢
I think I have endo on my urinary tract I need to go to the toilet constantly. Can anyone help here? It’s ruining my life there’s no relief…
Thank you for this video
Amazing video 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍)
Is endometriosis a pregnancy or ectopic gestation?
Definitely not pregnancy
@@africajourney2182 Thank you.
It’s a chronic disease
It's when the tissue of your uterus lining attaches to other parts of your body and bleeds during your period.
The pain is too bad
Castor oil and heating pad…. You’re welcome
i’ve tried a heating pad with my endometriosis pain, and it does nothing. i literally have burn scars on my stomach because i put such a hot heating pad on my stomach, and it didn’t ease the pain at all. i ended up throwing up and fainting three times, and then going to the er because the pain didn’t go away for five hours. don’t pretend you know all about endo when you clearly don’t.
I can't bear the pain. I can' t even sleep
Endometriosis is characterized by the presence of ectopic endometrial tissue; the abnormal tissue contains endometrial glands and stroma or stroma alone. 🩸🩸🩸
There are several theories about its pathogenesis, one possibility is the appearance of ectopic endometrial tissue due to retrograde menstrual flow to the uterine tube; however, it would not explain endometriosis in women with amenorrhea or in men treated with estrogen for prostate cancer, as well as in remote areas ( brain, lung and bone).
