Thankyou for the advice

It's not so much the irregular period I'm worried about, it's more other symptoms and the quantity of them as well. I agree that it's probably unlikely at my age thankgod.

Rather than assume the worst, I will probably tell the doc my symptoms at the appointment and see what she thinks.

Thanks

Well if its more pain that you are worried about then I'd try mefenamic acid! It works wonders for me! One of the side effects is drowsiness though but once you sleep it off the pain completely goes. It also shortened my period by a few days too!

But talk to your doctor and see what they think is best xx

Well I am actually a massive insomniac, so that might actually be a positive side effect for me - might actually be able to get a decent nights sleep. But yes I will talk to my doctor just to be on the safe side.

Thanks for the advice

Hey Soph,

Unfotunately you can't be too young to have endo, the problem is more that doctors tend to think that any problems will settle. I've struggled with various symptoms since the age of 14,have been on and off the pill from 16, had heaps on unnecessary tests and wrong diagnoses before I finally managed to have a diagnostic laparoscopy in December last year.

One book I've found to be really helpful is Endometriosis and Pelvic Pain by Dr Susan Evans & Deborah Bush, it's available on Fishpond for around 20aud.

If you have any questions you don't want to ask on here, flick me a pm.

Well this is the advice of a 15 year old who's never had a relationship before ( so please feel free to ignore said advice) but here is my opinion:

You said USED to work, so I'm assuming if you did start dating this would no longer be a problem?? From working with him this has obviously helped you form an opinion of what he's like as a person, so maybe the fact that you used to work together is actually a blessing in disguise. Onto the whole brother side if the issue, I think you need to ask yourself that if they hadn't have been friends, is there anything else that would have made you not want to date him?? If there is, only you know how big of an issue the issue is. If there isn't, then you and this guy sound like you could have something really special. If you're really not sure, ask your brother how he would feel if the two of you were to start dating. Depending on his answer, decide where to go from there.

Hope that helped in any small way ??

In other news - I had my doctors appointment today. She's put me on the pill, and she's also taken some blood tests just to make sure that I'm all fine and healthy. She's gonna phone with the results on Friday

It wouldnt be a problem if I was working with him or not. I really really like him, he's the first guy that I have showed interest in a while which is why when he asked me out I was jumping for joy.. but held back because of my brother. My brother doesnt mind.. which is why I am seeing him Friday afternoon for a mini date so thanks, the advice really helped

Hey guys just wondering if anyone would be able to give me some advice? It would be very much appreciated.

Basically since college I've met a load of new people and one friend in particular I've become really close to until about April when I realised we became close because I was starting to like him. Ever since then I've wanted to talk to him but I just can't - it's like somethings blocking me from telling him.

But today he told me that he's quitting college and I just don't want to tell him that I like him before it's too late. I'm just not sure how to tell him how I feel?

So yeah on friday me and that guy got together! We went to the cinema and it turns out he did like me back. And to top it all off I didn't even need to tell him how I felt as he did it first! Thanks for the advice!
