Hi Kenzie, Endometriosis can be a really horrible disease. I suffered from terrible pain every cycle, it hurt to have sex and sometimes during ovulation I would suffer for several days with fever and stomach pain. I too finally decided to have a hysterectomy because there was no other way to deal with it. I can say today that I feel much better, most of the pain has stopped and I feel that I can function.

Hello, I used to have terrible periods and ovarian cysts. Years ago, I had a fibroid the size of a golf ball, so I started researching about the female body and I found a Chinese acupuncture, and he gave me some tea to dissolve it. I was very surprised that it worked. Do a lot of research on you, the female body. I hope this helps

Hi there! I have been struggling with Endo since I was 14. I was diagnosed this year and had surgery to remove several growths. The stress and anxiety is a lot to deal with. I'm 22 so I get how freaked out you can get, I definitely was. I wish you all the best and for a quick recovery.
