Our Support

With a number of doctors confirming I have endometriosis and adenomyosis, I began researching more about these conditions.


I downloaded bits and pieces of information: from diets, supplements, management, treatments etc. and even purchased related books that might be helpful.


BOOKS/E-BOOKS


I (hoped) to  also post here the many articles I downloaded from the Internet, which I compiled as guide specifically including diets, remedies and many other useful information about endometriosis and adenomyosis. You may send me an e-mail if you want copies of these readings.

VITAMINS AND SUPPLEMENTS
Aside from following the ENDO DIET, me and my husband took these two very special supplements which we believed helped us in prepping our bodies for healthy conception. For inquiries on these amazing products, you may send an SMS or call +639279213310.

ACUPUNCTURE

Endometriosis is a gynecological condition that can cause severe pelvic and abdominal pain, excess menstrual bleeding and/or infertility. Western medicine often misses an endometriosis diagnosis until the woman has had symptoms for many years. Far less invasive, risky or costly than drugs or surgery, acupuncture is a natural approach, without side effects. It helps to relieve pain, regulate circulation and correct Qi energy imbalances.




SUPPORT GROUPS

I joined support groups and found comfort in the words of women who have the same condition as mine and hope from those who successfully conceived even with endo. I shared what I'm learning from the forums and blogs with my husband. He was reluctant at first but then seeing I am getting more and more optimistic each day somehow made him relieved.


Girl Talk in Female Network and EndoPhil in Yahoo Groups are just two of the many forums I visited which helped us in our journey and search for answers, treatments, and even alternatives. I felt I was stronger when I can identify with these women that though we don't see each other, there's this bond and compassion for everyone. I felt the 'virtual hugs' and the sincerity that comes with it.


I told myself, if these women and their partners were able to overcome the struggles, why can't we?


ULTIMATE SUPPORT

We couldn't discount the support we got from our family and friends who constantly provided us with encouraging and soothing words. And of course, to the Lord God Almighty thru Jesus Christ's intercession. Faith can move mountains and prayer is our best weapon. :)
