I am 27. I suffered with serve period pain from my first period when I was 15, I was put on the pill, this worked for about 3-4 year, I still had pain but I could cope, I was not throwing up and fainting when I had my period. I was officially diagnosed with endo in 2002 and had a laparoscopy and the endo was removed. I then had an implanon implanted in my arm, the 1st one worked for about 2 years and three months and then the bad pain returned. My GP replaced the implanon and that worked for about six months and I then saw another gyno and had another lot of surgery in October 2005, she told me that there was only a copy of spots of endo and she lasered them off, but the pain, she told me was in my head. I also had a mirena IUCD placed in my uterus. In January my pain was getting bad again, I returned to my gyno who told me that the pain was in my head and maybe I should have a baby. I am not married and my boyfriend lives overseas. It was a great way to spend $150 and I will never see that gyno again. I would like children one day, but not any time soon. The past five months I have had a period every 28 days, I get pain 3-6 days before and I usually throw up and have pain for two days into my period also. I have researched Depo- provera but I have found so much negative side effects, but I don't feel I have a choice. I have taken the last two days off work as the pain is so bad. I was wondering if anyone has had any success with Depo-provera injections or if anyone has a good gyno who is going to try and help me not suggest I have a baby. As I am already dreading next month.
