I am 35 years old, living with stage IV Endometriosis, possibly adenomyosis and struggled with infertility for almost 4 years. I also struggled with PPD and now struggle with PMDD. I am a mother to a son that was born at 18 weeks and too precious for this earth; and now a mother to a son born in August 2011. By journaling here, I hope to benefit both for myself and for others that are dealing with this disease and fertility struggles. Thanks for visiting!

Interesting article

I've got my first session (in a long while) set up for the last week in November for the accupuncturist.  I'm also on the cancellation list (fingers crossed!!!).

In the mean time, I had a friend tell me about this vitamin she's been taking to help her PMS called Chasteberry.  Then I found this little ditty.  I'm going to try it...as long as it doesn't interfere with my PPD meds.  I'm going to grab it this afternoon and run it by my pharmacist.  I'm not sure about the two other vitamins on here...maybe one at a time.

Anyone have experience with vitamins helping with any endo symptoms?  Probably not pain, but all the other wonderfulness that these effed up hormones can bring?  :)

Not even fish oil has helped me out with the endo pain. If you find something let me know.

I have taken Vitex in the past but I don't remember any noticeable changes in symptoms!
