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 everyone! I haven't posted in awhile...luckily I've been feeling pretty good the past few months. I've recently started to have pain in my left thigh. It is on the top of my thigh, so it doesn't feel like an inner muscle, really. There are times when it feels like it starts in my left ovary and then goes down my thigh, and other times when it is just in my thigh. I'm used to getting a lot of weird aches and pains, but this one has proved to be rather persistent.
Does this sound endo-related? Does it sound like a cyst?

I haven't had my first lap yet to officially diagnose Endo but, I do have what looks like a chocolate cyst on ultrasound near my right ovary (says the doc). One of the many symptoms that brought me into the doctor is that my pain feels like it travels from my right ovary into my thigh. It's not a strained muscle pain it's more an irradiating pain. It doesn't go away. It's mild compared to the other pain I get but it's there and I'm pretty sure it's related.

Yea, I usually get that but it goes from my lower back, to my ovary all the way down my leg as if it was all connected. My hip would click too, pretty odd. I did have an ultrasound a month ago and they discovered a tiny cyst on my left ovary and should go away. Well, I don't think it is going away because I'm having more and more pain along with the thigh/leg pain too. Sometimes a massage would help.

Yup. My cysts cause a fair amount of pain in my hips and thighs. Normally it's a deep ache but around ovulation and my period it's so intense it feels like my bones are splintering. I would definitely get checked for cysts.

My 6mo twin DD's are EBF and just started rice cereal on the first. Everything has been going fine except this morning one of them had a diaper rash (lots of redness around her anus). I read this as one of the signs of an allergy. BUT I did just buy a different brand diaper yesterday (which they have used randomly before w/no issues). Do you think its the cereal or the diaper? Im ready to start...
