The world crushed down under my feet when I learned that physical & emotional abuse by toxic parents, & a bad lifestyle caused me to have endometriosis.

F my feminine body!

I don't wanna be operated on.

Being operated on is a lot better than endometriosis tho. After it's done you'll feel so much relief

I am sure it will be

#

my gf is also very hesitant on getting sth done but evertime she gets bad cramps etc. I'm lik 20 seconds away from calling an ambulance

#

If it's the same for you, please don't do that to yourself

I've done this 50 times, were in a bad situation and it's not easy. Try getting hydrophobe to swim kind of thing

#

You already made the first step tho

#

Yup. My parents finally listened to me. I've known for last few years that something was wrong with me bcz I used to be really healthy.

Yeah, it takes a few or more years to develop.

# tulip vector my I ask how did you get your diagnosis?

I used to get severe period cramps. I had my first ultrasound done 8-9 months ago, and it was normal. Then, three months ago, I had a bad stomachache for more than 24 hours. I had another ultrasound, and they found a large hemorrhagic ovarian cyst (which was obviously a wrong result because we were in a hurry and went to any diagnostic center we could find available). My mother and I argued with my father to take me to the surgeon as my gynecologist suggested, but he didn't listen, so I had to seek our homeopathic family doctor. My third ultrasound was done last month, and we found it was actually severe endometriosis, and it kept increasing. We finally saw my surgeon. She comforted us; earlier, there was even a risk of cancer, but thank God the CA-125 result came back normal.

people really don't know how to operate ultrasounds do they?

I explained this much, so I hope your girlfriend will also try to take it seriously because I always did. I wanted to get my MRI/CT scan done years ago because I started having period cramps suddenly; I didn't get them before. But my parents didn't listen me or believed that something like this can happen with me. They still don't believe.

Yep, take care of her, good luck. Period pain is not normal.
