What are the possible adverse effects of a Luna, please?

Hi everyone,

I had my lap on the 12th June and had widespread but superficial endo and it was lasered off. After this I experienced heavy bleeding for around 2-3 weeks and my GP put me on tranexamic acid to stop the bleeding- which it did. Since then I have had no bleeding and have been on the progesterone only pill, like normal. However over the past month I have been experiencing pelvic endo pain AGAIN and tonight, I have started bleeding again
I have been in touch with my GP who I am… read more

Good Morning everyone,
I have seen some posts about someone saying that the doctor must have done an ablation not excision.
What is ablation?
I know mine was excision.

Hello! Has anyone had the laparoscopic uterine nerve ablation procedure done? If so, did it help, what was the recovery time like and was it outpatient surgery? Thanks!

I am scheduled for surgery to find out if i have endometriosis. I wonder if it is what i have or something else. I feel just nausea right now and about a week and half away from getting my cycle. Occasional pain in lower stomach that is like sharp, and will get sharp pain through pelvic area also. All around just feel crappy. Anyone have that and its endo?

Does anyone know of any gynaecologists who specialise in endometriosis in Ireland?

Does any one in the group have endometriosis on uterosacral Ligament ? Have you experienced problem of sitting post - op due to having strange feeling at end of your back where you sit ?

I have felt NO relief since the surgery and I almost feel like my pain has gotten worse. I was in chronic pain and in and out of the hospital for ten years before the idea of endometriosis came up. Now I know what it is but I'm afraid to talk to a doctor about ho much pain I'm still in because I'm worried they will just have me do another laproscopic bc that's… read more

I had my third laparoscopy this past July and have already experienced the same excruciating pain just four months after the procedure... What now? another surgery?
This pain is only on the right pelvic region. It's been discussed taking out the right ovary, is there any chance this could help?

I know it's a weird symptom but I noticed that the pain is worse in ovaluation days, and the pain increases with the increasing of the vaginal fluids.
I don't know for sure that I have endometriosis, I only have chronic pelvic pain, and pelvic pain while urinating that become worse in ovaluation days. And sometimes I also have rectal pain.
I only wanted to know if someone else is experiencing something like that and what is her condition.
Thank you ❤
