I was 12 when the pain started. It resulted in not being able to stand or walk, due to numbness and pain in my right thigh. On my 14th birthday I started with birthcontrol pill, to keep my hormones in check. The GP said that it was probably endometriosis.
When I was 18 I was sick and tired of the pain, the pill didn't help and I wanted to be able to do normal things during my period. The gynacologist prescribed a new pill, which sucked, so I was back to square one.
A year later I went back again. After an echo they told me I did not have endometriosis and I just had to take painkillers and live with it.
So, I lived with it. For 2.5 years. But this september it had become so bad that I cried for 2 whole days, because of the pain.
I got a new gynacologist and I am currently being checked for everything that could be wrong. Including endometriosis.
