Endometriosis was briefly discussed but adenomyosis was not. Both are equally important and I think a problem that is happening is obgyn doctors are having women get laparoscopic surgery done without doing a MRI of the uterus area first.
Saturated Fat:
• Found in animal products such as fatty cuts of meat, poultry with skin, lard, and full-fat dairy products (like butter, cream, and cheese).
• Also present in tropical oils such as coconut oil, palm oil, and palm kernel oil.

I get so furious when people think I’m faking being sick. People think endo is just a bad period 🙄 .. it’s that plus unbearable pain and 19 other symptoms.
@RealCandaceO
Yes, some birth control side effects are not pleasant and different birth controls can effect each woman differently side effect wise but some women need birth control to stop us from having periods because we have endometriosis and that is one of the very few treatments for us.

Crazy reading this thread , last time I was in the hospital they gave me morphine , it didn’t help only made me feel weird af then it’s worse when it wears off. Lortab and Flexeril is the only things besides Advil that’s actually helped the pain for me.
