Endometriosis and menopause

[Goldenbrowntexturelikesun]

Has anyone been through menopause with an endometriosis diagnosis?

Wondering how you coped in peri, did it exacerbate your endo symptoms? We’re you able to take hrt? Did any medications help your peri symptoms?

More importantly, did the endo symptoms dampen down post menopause?

I am newly diagnosed with endometriosis and Adenomyosis (may need a hysterectomy for that) at almost 51 and feel lost as most online support is for younger women. I’d like to know what happens during peri and beyond.

It does sound like we're on similar journeys.
He's given me a guidline of op for Oct Nov time. Which sounds great but my referall from gp to gynae was Nov 22 but id asked in the March. This is my second consultant as 1st refused to treat me based on an mri the resulting internal scan showed much more.
I really hope you get answers and a resolution soon. 20 years of pain is far too much

I’m keeping my fingers crossed for us both

Hope your getting on OK @Goldenbrowntexturelikesun.
My surgery date has come through for early next month so getting sorted ready for that.
