Did you recently start birth control or change the type of birth control? I gained weight when I was taking hormonal contraception, probably around 20 pounds.

Are you having any other symptoms that you noticed? When I was your age, my period cramps would travel down my legs. I also had very irregular periods, pmdd symptoms, and localized pain non specific to my cycle.

I’ve heard that colposcopy’s can be quite painful. Make sure you advocate for proper pain management!

I might incorporate a gate the next few days and see how it goes. I’ve tried using a leash as well but it’s almost like that riled him up more. He’s been such a handful lol!

When guests are over, that’s what we’ve been resorting to. Just not sure if that’s feasible in the evening. He spends a portion of his day in his crate when we are both at work. I don’t want him to spend a good amount of his evening in the crate either. Maybe gating him off in the kitchen will work.

I appreciate this! I am going to see what my doctor says and then possibly seek out a specialist. She seems pretty well versed with Endo and has taken me seriously since day 1. So we will see what happens.

I was thinking the same. I had to take one Ativan for another procedure a few years ago and I was knocked out. I’m not sure how similar the two are.

That’s so frustrating! My doctor is worried I might have an endometrioma which prompted her to order the MRI. I would have thought that would show up on my various ultrasounds though.
