Link between migraines and pelvic pain in women.

In our national paper today.

Hi Pen!

Did you survive Christmas?

Interesting article. I do suffer from pelvic pain, but it is mostly associated with my PMS or my period. I also have a light case of endometriosis. None of this bothers me as much as the migraine does and I don’t even have to take painkillers. Usually a hot water bottle will do the trick.

Love

Hey Pen

Back in the day when I had my cycle it was awful..I would have horrible cramps and vommit and bleed like crazy. I felt so much better after I had a complete hysterectomy.. due to endometriosis..it was in my tubes, ovaries, cervix and uterus.

Another one waving the white flag.

I have been diagnosed with endometriosis. I went through the 6 months of lupron and ended up with an IUD to control it. Funny thing is I'm pretty sure my mom had endo as well (was never diagnosed but the symptoms fit) but the migraine connection is on my dad's side. Perhaps I just got the worst possible combo of genes...but the migraines on my dad's side are not immediate family and they are hormonally based (which mine aren't).

I was told I had endo. I was told i was sterile because of it.
11 months later my 3rd child was born. No more endo....

I had severe endo also. But a hysterectomy at 31 and ovaries gone 2 years later took care of that.
