Hi, ladies!

So I have been on multiple different birth control pills and none of them have been great and I had started getting break thru bleeding on my previous one so my gyno put me on a progesterone only pill and I’ve been on it for five months and my period is sooooo much worse(which I didn’t even know was possible) I had an ultrasound to make sure all is good(which I’m sure it is) and have my follow up appointment next week to talk about going on a new pill.

So, I went to the gynecologist yesterday. He explained to me that the endometriosis has created a spiderweb effect and is now on my organs, which is why I am in so much pain. Does anyone know about this or is experiencing this?

My OB told me she is 100% convinced that I have endometriosis. The only issue is, it is not in my cervix. She believes it is in the rectovaginal area. She did a laparoscopy in April of 2023 but did not further explore the rectovaginal area. She stated she saw lesions on the lining toward my rectum but was unable to access them. I'd like to go to a specialist to confirm and would be interested in hearing people's symptoms with this type of endo to help me assess my own.

My partner does the bulk of the caregiving, especially recently given my surgeries. I know he could benefit from a safe space to talk with other partners in similar situations.
