Endometriosis

Elisa

Hi all,

I was recently diagnosed with endometriosis while I had surgery to remove a cyst they thought was a dermoid. It turned out to be an endometrial cyst and I had adhesions on my left Fallopian tube, my ovary and my uterus. They also removed uterine fibroids. It’s been a month since I had the surgery and I was cleared two weeks ago to resume activities.

I am on my period but, I had to go to the ER last night because I was bleeding heavily. I was scared I was hemorrhaging. Turns out I was experiencing menorrhagia. I’ve never had this before. Doctors acted like it was no big deal. But, I’m continuing to bleed a lot and I feel really out it. My question is, have any of you experienced this? And what do you to help lessen the bleeding or what can I do to get better? Any advice is appreciated.
