Endomitrioma

Yes and I have had it twice there are other things to remove endomertious. I have been on birth control pills for a while and then hormones they like to try different things before they remove it with surgery. I had it 10 years ago and went in to remove it was only to be 45 mins ended up being 4 hours I had it so bad, it was on my lung, liver, my heart areas, my ribs bladder you name it it was there.... I have had it off and on for ten years now if you need some advice let me know...

I would see another doctor. I had endomitrioma before I was pregnant and had surgery. My doctor told me that being pregnant is the best thing to avoid having your endomitrioma come back, as you are not having your period, thus there is not build up of tissue.

1st your doctor cannot be sure its endomitrioma unless u have a visible cyst (which is more rare). he will only be sure its EM once he does the laparoscopy surgery and is in there.

Have u tried taking an aspirin every day for 3-4 days, about 2 days before your period starts? This may increase your flow (as aspirin thins out your blood), but it worked wonders for me in reducing the pain... I'm not a doctor, but since I had EM I have some familiarity with it.

But do see another doctor for sure! I saw 3 before finally getting surgery and each proposed something different. But what they did agree on is, If u want to have more children only have surgery when there is NO OTHER SOLUTION, cauz there's always a risk of messing up your pelvis, reducing fertility!

Also, periods change after having babies, so it may just be a hormone thing. I had 2 c section babies and my periods changed...

Good mornilng,
I had stage four endomitriosis after giving birth to my son. I went from doctor to doctor with no help in sight. It was a "night-mare". Then I met Dr. Vadarte and while doubled over in the most excurshating pain, he quickly took me in and did exploritory surgery. Which showed a "belly-full" of blood caused by the edo. We talked about the options, and he cleaned my isides up, and put me on hormones for a year so see how things would go. I was 32 at the time and had a 4 and 6 year old. THings go worst during the year, so we did a complete Hysorectomy. So I have not had a period in sixteen years. And its been great! I tried the synthtic hormones for about 60 days...but felt better with out them...and have never taken anything since. Thats my experiece with endomitrioma. If you have any questions let me know. ITs painful, it can get worse and it effects your other vita organs.
It grew around my colon and having a bowel movement was like giving birth again....its wicked stuff.

I had an endometrioma, but it was before my first daughter was born. I had the same symptoms and it was actually part of the reason I couldn't get pregnant. I had surgery to remove the tumor and they were able to leave a portion of my ovary, but they had to take most of it. I remember the recovery being painful for the first few days, but it really wasn't that bad. (Not if you've already had a c-section...smile.) They may even be able to go through the belly button now. I wasn't ovulating because of it. Turns out, both the eggs that became my two kiddos came from the other ovary, but at least I still have most of the other one left. It depends on how big it is whether or not they take the whole thing. Good luck! I will say a prayer for you A..
