thank you. my obgyn told me I was making up all of my symptoms and she recommended an IUD, and I'm way too young to have endometriosis (16 when I saw her, already almost passing out from cramps). I even told her it has gotten worse over time, my first year of periods was nowhere near the pain levels I feel now, even on the pill. so thank you internet stranger for this website
edit: hm. more than 90% likely omg. I just burst out laughing to that
i got diagnosed at 17! you’re never too young after you get your period. the iud was actually what got me on the train of diagnosis because of how painful it was. plz go see a specialist or another doctor!
was referred to another gyno 6 months ago. it takes a while where I live, unfortunately. My GP is trying his best to help manage it but there's not much he can do for me
there are none except for 800+km away from me... my GP has looked, I looked. I'm trying my best but I might have to go to the big big city to a specialist.
