So the Mireena IUD has been my birth control method for 7 years now. I had stage 3 endo excised in August and I am feeling a lot better. However, I am still struggling with pelvic floor pain and spasms. Even with going to physical therapy since July. I am worried the IUD is causing my pelvic floor muscles to tighten especially because i am hyper mobile. However, it’s been so nice to not have a period for 7 years because it was so heavy and painful before. I have an appointment in a week to remove it but i am TERRIFIED my period will be terrible like it was 7 years ago. Or that I will experience way more endo flare ups. My dr says it would be helpful to get it out and see how i do with no BC for a month and track my cycle then try YAZ or SLYND. Any similar experiences or advice??? I would hate myself if i get it taken out and ruin my quality of life but maybe it will help my pelvic floor relax??? any experiences with endo on yaz, slyndd, or no bc??? HELP

i was diagnosed with stage 3 endometriosis last year and underwent 2 surgeries and went in and out of medically induced menopause. this caused me to develop POTS which i was just diagnosed with. I have also been diagnosed with PMDD and hypermobility (may also have hEDs). Oh and i also am autistic. oh and my hormone levels are borderline normal, almost PCOS levels. Anyone have advise??? I am getting so overwhelmed and hopeless. I just want to be healthy. 😖 They’re all invisible illnesses / disabilities too so no one even understands the extent of pain and suffering i go through every day. What has helped you guys???
