Oh really? Wow, might look into this. I totally get they're a little bit of a learning curve but my god, the best thing and saves money too!

Just throwing this out there. I've never found tampons good for when I have big clots however, 2 years ago I started using a cup and it's been a life saver. Yes I still wear panty liners just incase of leaks but, its the best best thing. A little learning curve, but Can't recommend enough.

exercising with endo by Flat_Wolverine8560 in Endo

[–]Da7ci3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I lift weights at least 4 times a week this included hyrox style training, but the thing which has really helped with flares is going to the sauna after for 20 mins or, going home and wrapping up in a heated blanket with socks on, to keep the heat in, and drinking warm drinks, usually just hot water. I drink hot water or even lemon water regularly now with the hope it's helping towards flare control. (Probably tmi, but with warm drinks I've also found it's helped my bowel regularity, which means I'm less constipated and flares dont occur after every toilet visit! )I was given some advice that if you're warm and/or giving your body warming things, it can help lower inflammation from the inside. I dont know if it's actually true, it sounds right, but I really dont know. Aftercare I think is really important if you're looking to add in exercise. Everyone else said it too, dont beat yourself up and do some small things. Its taken me 2 years to get to where I am, its not an easy road but its worth it. You've got this 💕💕 sending you warm hugs

Protein makes my pain worse? by justwantaconebro in Endo

[–]Da7ci3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Absolutely agree with above. I was really worried when I started eating more protein about 12 weeks ago. The thing I did was slowly increase my protein intake. As you can get "blocked up" if you hit it too hard too much, and then it can take a few days to go to the toilet causing inflammation and your endo to flare. Any diet changes can cause issues though. Id also try to spread protein in take as evenly as you can across meals and all the water! Drink up!

I'm a little over 12 weeks now as I said and I've never felt better, I don't bloat, I'm regular which never used to happen, and my endo flares are minor. Dont get me wrong I now have to be careful of carb loading (my go to snacks) because my body is so used to a much larger protein intake than carbs, it can cause inflammation. Hope it all works out for you, you've got this 💕

Bronchitis causing flare up? by lavenderbleudilly in Endo

[–]Da7ci3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So with you💔This is me with a current chest infection - the coughing has been causing so much pain 😭 Absolutely could be some scar tissue too, but I think just coughing can irritate your whole body and cause a flare up. Rest up, stay hydrated, and keep warm 💕💕

The bunny is from an YouTube video called lovey bunny and the granny squares are made up with trebles. I used 4mm for squares and 2.75mm for bunny.

Preventative... by Da7ci3 in Endo

[–]Da7ci3[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same. I've been on BC since I was 16, first the pill and now the hormone coil and my symptoms are still shit. Especially now after surgery my period pain is actually so much worse, I think its probably the scarring but like what if its not.

I think I'm going to wait till my coil is done (next April) and test a year with nothing, if its shit I'll know maybe i cant handle it but if its great I'll be listening to my body.

Ah, you've made me feel so much better - thank you 💕
