I Am Not Sure If This Is Endo Related, I Have Never Had A Heavy Period But A Lot Of Pain In My Lower Left Abdomen And Back , Feels Likes A B

Burning 🔥 sensation. This started in 2018 , the pain lasts from days to weeks to months and then goes away. I was put on lo loestrin in 2020 and the pain went away but now it is back 4 years later,
I had 4 trans vaginal ultrasounds from 2018-2020, colonoscopy and cystoscopy, abdominal ultrasound but nothing was found. I am so worried about what this pain could be related to

I have this same thing. My CT scan showed "hydronephrosis" which is a backup in the ureter/kidney. Essentially, my endo is pressing on and partially blocking a ureter. My symptoms are just what you're describing. Burning...kind of a dull ache in my side and back. Also bloating. I'm wondering if yours isn't bad enough yet to show up on their scans. I usually feel things before a lab or scan will detect it.

I've has this. Could be kidney stones bc a cystoscopy only shows inside the bladder not the kidneys..unless u had that procedure too. I get chronic kidney stones and my lower back back and side area abdominal will hurt like crazy when I have one. Only way to really know is a CT but the stones will only show up if they r at least like 2mm I believe. I'm actually currently dealing with passing a 5mm one. Let me know if you get sharp pains too in those areas. But my kidney will burn really bad when I have one especially when I push to pee or poop. Hope that helps some. Another thing possibly an entrapped nerve from a surgery. Have u had a recent one?

I have had 2 CT Scans in 2018 when the pain first started but they didn’t show any kidney stones.
My pain has come once a year and it has a mind of its own.
It hurts deep inside and in my back.
A burning sensation and bloating.
I haven’t had laparoscopic surgery yet.
