Endometriosis Support Group
Endometriosis is a common medical condition where the tissue lining the uterus is found outside of the uterus, typically affecting other organs in the pelvis. The condition can lead to serious health problems, primarily pain and infertility. A major symptom of endometriosis is pain, mostly in the lower abdomen, lower back, and pelvic area.
I've been trying to research calcium supplements and how to take them. I know that I need to take vitamin D with it and I think what I've read also is that magnesium may have to come into play.
I'm going to start on Lupron soon and I want to prevent the bone loss. I take a multivitamin everyday but I think I will need more to keep my body in check.
Can anybody tell me what I should take? Is there a special brand in particular that perhaps is already balanced for you? Am I barking up the wrong tree with the calcium thing?
Any advice would be helpful.
Thanks!!

The calcium suppliments they sell that contain vit C are what you would be best with, as Vitamin C is needed to absorb calcium (so it makes sense to take a combined tablet rather than messing around with varying amounts of Vit C yourselt) I personally do not absorb calcium from tablets without Vit C and a girlfriend of mine (not an endo girl though) is exactly the same. Have you had a chat to your GP about this? I am sure they would be able to advise you better... or even that naturopath? xx
