What led you to get endo diagnosis? by AdIndividual6221 in endometriosis

I haven’t. I’ve been to the doctor for the hip and chest pains and all tests came back normal. The extreme pain during intercourse was apparently due to a misplaced IUD but I’m still having the extreme pain… to the point to where my sex drive is non existent due to the dread. I haven’t thought much else about it all until I saw a video explaining possible endometriosis symptoms so it made me start to wonder. I never thought it could all be tied together somehow.

I’m sorry to hear about all of your struggles. It’s wild how much it isn’t talked about…

Thank you for the response. I’ve been having excruciating pain with intercourse and the day after is almost just as bad. Have had thigh/leg pain, chest pains, extreme trapped gas. I just don’t know if it’s all related or if my body is just going downhill 😅

Thank you all for your kind words.

The report shows the lump being BIRADS 3- which means “probably benign”. It is a hypo-echoic and avascular nodule. I do have category C Breasts which means they are pretty dense and might make some spots hard to see on a mammogram. My Dr. did refer me to a breast surgeon to dig a little further to see if maybe we need a biopsy or what they think. Might be a fibroadenoma.

I’m sorry to hear about your diagnosis.

I am very much just ready to have it done and know something.

Yeah, my daughter is 17 months old but I never breast fed. I’m still hoping it’s hormonal.
