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.
Hi I'm new here. Was diagnosed with endo in my early 20s (I'm 37 now). Have had good and bad times, currently my pain is manageable. But I do have really heavy bleeding on my period and my doc has prescribed a drug called CYKLOKAPRON - I only take it on the first 2 days of my period, and the bleeding is much much lighter. Thought this might be helpful to some of you

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...

I can totally relate to the heavy bleeding thing. I came near fainting many times because of anemia and my blood pressure dropping from bleeding too much too quickly. I am much better and since I started doing natural things for my heavy bleeding. If you are interested, you can visit my webpage here to see what I do: www.sufferingsisters.com
Go to the page 'Illnesses/Symptoms' and you will find the topic 'Heavy Bleeding' there.
Hope this helps!
