I'm looking for some advice please...
I turned 40 in June and after two years of TTC for DC2 we have decided to give up. Last year in November I had a laparoscopy to investigate our problems with TTC as all blood tests had come back normal.
Nothing at all was found during the procedure. No endometriosis or blockages at all.
But since the procedure my periods have got progressively worse. But they seem to follow a by-monthly cycle.
One month ovulation itself is really painful where I have to take painkillers but that month the period isn't as painful or as heavy. But the following month ovulation is a lot less painful but the period is excruciating and I lose big clots of blood. It's really awful and I never experienced periods like this before the Lap procedure.
I have been to the GP who said 'sometimes you have periods like that, it's nothing to worry about' .
I know that some people have suffered like this all their lives, but this is very unusual for me. I have to take very strong painkillers every two hours for the first 48 hours of my period every other month. Also the pain does seem to be very one-sided, like the ovulation pain. The worst pain is always on the left.
Can anyone shed any light on it?
