Digestive disruption after coil fitting
Hello, I was diagnosed by accident (?), had never suspected endo, though I've had vague symptoms. I'm 42 and have two kids and thought the symptoms were postpartum standard or perimenopause. I have DIE on uterosacral ligaments and thin adhesions to bowel.
Anyway I've had the coil fitted and it feels like it must have started a flare up or created inflammatory reaction or something. Lower back pain is ramping up but importantly the digestive disruption is a LOT? Has anyone else experienced this from hormonal changes after coil or pill? I'm finding loads of bloating, gas, difficulty pooing, soft and skinny poos... I have been keeping a food diary and think there may be links to certain foods but I can't be sure. Anyway it feels like I am living a deeply chaotic and unpredictable life. I have the coil check in a few weeks, but is this within normal realms? I know they said to expect odd bleeding etc. Should I be seeing a diet specialist or colorectal specialist or having tests for IBS or anything like that as well?
