Hi Stacey
Your friend's symptoms definitely sound like endo, and she's lucky to
have such a great and knowledgeable friend; your advice sounds great!
Years ago (5 or 6) I started bleeding after sex, not much pain with sex
though, and with spotting mid cycle. My male doc checked me out, said I
had a 'leaky cervix' (whatever the heck that is!!! I was young and not
knowledgeable about endo etc in the least) and he cauterized it. Had
some similar after that, but never followed up on it. that was two,
maybe three docs ago. Now am in good hands! Hope your friend gets into
a good doc soon! Keep us posted on how she's doing, and wish her the
best of luck for me.
Painfree and happy wishes to everyone,
luv, Amy
