Hi,

My PCOS is now very mild too (my gynae said last year that it had gone since I had no cysts, but I am prone to weight gain, acne etc when not on the pill!), thanks to lifestyle changes and my pill, however I think my endometriosis may have been to blame for certain things that were attributed to PCOS by doctors over the years! Not ttc - though wish I was. At the moment I am still studying but I would like to start ttc in 2-3 years, though if it accidently happened I would be over the moon!

I'm sorry you are having issues. It is good to get the lap done. It's nearly a month since I had mine and I really can feel a difference. It seems stupid but I absolutely never thought I had endometriosis, it just seemed so unlikely as I was always told you MUST have a) extremely heavy periods and b) more periods than normal, and I was the opposite! I am thankful for all the great ladies on here who are so helpful and explain this stuff since I rarely leave the doctor feeling informed lol!

I'm sorry, I am pretty new to this so all the gonal whatnot you wrote totally went over my head lol!

I used to be told that if I lost weight then my issues with pain etc would go. Well I lost weight, and even when I was really quite thin I had these issues, so it seems that endo hurts either way! Never been on Met, my bmi is under 30 so was refused when I asked for it. Do you find that ovulating makes you feel better or worse? xx
