Wow, lots of great info - thank you! I haven't been sexually active with the boyfriend since the beginning of May, it's not really a problem at this point (well, depends on how you look at it, I suppose...hah) I don't feel sometimes I'm sexually active enough to consider myself 'sexually active' anyways. Plus the pain during intercourse has been really bad also, which is why - even though I really, really want to with the loving and understanding boyfriend - at the same time, I'm like, "I don't wanna..." lol
The last birth control I was on - Errin - I did stop taking it after I had a panic attack because I thought it was associated with it and I decided to stop the Camila recently as well.
The Doc did ask if I had any discharges or leaky nipples and I told him I didn't. I'm glad you indicated that it sounds like endometriosis because I had a gyno from Birmingham (before I moved here) that told me that it didn't, even when I told him that a laproscopic surgery revealed scar tissue on the uterus - "that doesn't mean it's endometriosis" AND when his nurse informed me I had HPV, she told me that I could have ONLY gotten it through random sex partners and that it NEVER EVER goes away and I'll always have it. I was not a fan of that doctor's office...they made me feel crazy lol)
I'll ask about the Mirena, but I thought that was typically for women who had already been pregnant and I never have? Please correct me if I'm misinformed!
