Hi. I was recently diagnosed with IBS and stumbled upon an endometriosis site, only to scare myself. The doctor said I have IBS-D/C. I noticed that my diarrhea gets bad right before my period. Does anyone else get this and is it normal? My stomach cramps seem to get pretty severe before and during my period, is that normal with IBS (or without)? Also, I have odd cramps in the upper part of my thighs before my period, no one I know seems to have this. Anyone else have these?! I have a lot of yeast infections and understand this may also be related to either IBS or endometriosis. I had a pelvic ultrasound and it was normal, but I'm not sure if this can diagnose endometriosis?? I am considering seeing my gyno but want to learn more before I consider having the larposcopy (sp?). Is the test like an endoscopy or colonoscopy? I've did tons of research but am still not sure about the matter.
Can anyone give me some advice or answer my questions? I'm pretty scared about the infertility issue and would appreciate any replies. Thanks!
