Does Anyone Have An IUD For Their Endo And Have Breakthrough Symptoms?

A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question 💭
Washington, DC

I have had my IUD since I got surgery for my endo back in 2022. I haven't had a period since but in the past 6 months, I have been having more cramping and leg pain like I used to. Has this happened to anyone else?

Hi, this happened to me as well. First, my pain got even worse the first months after my first surgery and I had to do a treatment to treat my nerve damage first with Pelvic Rehab Medicine. Also, having an IUD inserted made my Endo flareups waaaay worse.
