I know I've mentioned this in a post before, but didn't hear much so I wanted to ask again. Does anyone have any experience with endometriosis and WLS? I haven't had a period in 3 years, because it causes extreme levels of pain. Surgery recovery is nothing in comparison.

I'm assuming because of the hormones, my continuous BCP isn't working. Neither my surgeon nor my OBGYN know what to say. I am in tons of pain, and the blood loss from having a period for the last month isn't helping my 500 calories a day.

Any experience or insight would be great. I am up all night in pain and it's getting bad enough to where I can't even work. Help!

@@rolosmom7,

I would advise to get to a hospital or go to a good GYN doctor who specializes in endometriosis. I hope you find answers soon. Please keep us posted.

I can only imagine the kind of pain you're in. Best of luck in getting this resolved.

I feel your pain (literally) I had a hysterectomy years before my VSG due to endometriosis. It's the only thing that helped. Is this something you have discussed with your medical team? Did your surgeon mention anything about what things looked like in there when he did your sleeve? I know all my old adhesions made things a little tricky.

My surgeon (male) asked me to go off my continuous BCP - his female PA told me I'd be fine so I went with her plan. Saw my obgyn yesterday - she wants to "reset" everything and take me off the pill. But I just don't know how I'd manage working. At 27, my options are limited since I don't want to give up the ability to have kids.

So frustrating! Thank God my manager at work also had it for 10+ years and understands.
