Endometriosis?

Endometriosis?

I've been having sex lately and it can be painful after days after even.
But last night was the worst the pain it was so bad. We were sitting and I was on top. It was like I was having a contraction I can't even describe it. Almost like my uterus was going to fall out of me. Everything burned. I was in the shower and my partner had to hold me up.
I was just in shock how much pain I was in. I looked down and my stomach was huge!
10 minutes later nothing. Im fine.
Today I have a period cramp but its a deep sort of pain.
I've now skipped my period this month. It ended yesterday. (Not pregnant, took 3 tests, two looked positive we were excited took another it was negative, we were very disappointed).
I've had 2 proper periods on time this year. I didn't have a period all year to May then June now nothing.
Has any one had anything like this. I saw my dr and she said I have endometriosis she didn't even say might she just said i do and to come back if sex hurts again. I did and then she said she's referring me to a gynecologist. I hvant told her about last night yet.
I have a child already. How can I have endometriosis? I want another baby soon will this be possible. My partner and I have been discussing it lately.
Im a little scared, worried a whole lot of emotions. I don't really understand endometriosis except it grows on the out side of your uterus not the inside, and I thought you got really heavy periods not light or skipped?
Has anyone had any symptoms like this or know how to have sex with out it hurting?

I don’t know how she can tell you that without doing tests. It could be anything. Also even if you were pregnant this shouldn’t hurt like that. Try another pregnancy test and ask for a blood test anyway. Also did she even do a Pap smear or check anything. You gyno will know more but your Dr is slack. That’s bad!

If 2 were positive looking then you usually are. Are you sure you haven’t misscarried.? The dr should have checked into it all with tests.

It is more likely to be a false negative than a false positive. I would be getting checked out ASAP as it could be an ectopic pregnancy. If you're not pregnant, it could be PCO or even a bowel spasm. I've had bowel spasms very occasionally and they've caused cramps that brought me to my knees and extreme bloating.

Have you had a pap smear? I had similar and needed to have my cervix lazered to avoid cancer. No issues to conceive after that :)
