    Hi Denise

    I was diagnosed with Endometriosis and PCOS in my 20's, I'm now 44.

    I remember how much pain I was in before knowing what was wrong. When I had a poo (sorry to be so blunt), it felt like broken glass coming away. I would feel like I was going to pass out. There would be blood too.

    Endometriosis is an incredibly painful condition. I had treatment for many years. I rarely had a period and finally had a coil fitted 3 years ago, as I started bleeding and it wouldn't stop. After having tests, a coil was suggested.

    I wish you luck and hope this helps a little.
