does anyone have this?
if yes can you contact me via pm or whatever, i really need some help because i dont think i can go on any longer.
im 19 and ive been suffering with it since i was 12. thats 7 years with a week taken out of each month spent being ill.
For pain i have tried a cocktail of drugs, none of which working. I am currently on a mixture of voltarol and solpadol and they cant give me anything stronger.
Since the age of 13 ive tried about 10 different types of contraceptive pill, even taking 2 a day with no breaks and none of them have worked
I had an operation to have the growths removed when i was 17
I went to see a specialist yesterday and she was horrible , basically said theres nothing thet can be done. And that the pain wont stop until i have the menopause
The only treatment that worked for me was a premature menopausal injection but i was only allowe don it for 6 months as it causes bone wasting
Ive been told that i could go on this if i also went on HRT. At my age.
The only other option i have been given is to have a mirena coil fitted. I desperately want this as its my last option unless i want to be a menopausal women at the age of 19 but i cant seem to get in anyewhere for an appointment until ive had anoter 2 periods-i cant have them. I will be in so much pain that i may as well quit uni, not go back.
i cant face another 2 months of the pain, drugged up and not being able to be out having fun
So if anyone has any experience of this please do you know anything that may help
Anything at all, because im losing the will to carry on with this

So sorry you're in so much pain.
I thought you might like to look at this, it could be of some help.
It may alse be useful for you to know that there's a National Endometriosis Society in the UK who offer help, information and support to women with endometriosis.
Hope this helps some,
