Visanne And Periods?
A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question đź’­

For those of you who have been on Visanne did you notice a change in your periods? My first one on it came late and lasted for about two weeks and this one is even later or possibly non-existent I had some cramps around the time I should have gotten it and maybe a drop. Can it stop your period altogether? My doctor never mentioned it when she prescribed it to me and it slipped my mind to ask. Any input would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!

Anyone Taking Visanne Have Prolonged Periods?
A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question đź’­

I started taking visanne 7-8 weeks ago and had a noticeable reduction in pain however my first cycle while on the medication hasnt stopped and I'm going on 4 weeks. My gyno is suggesting I tough it out since it's working to reduce pain but I'm inclined to stop if the bleeding continues. Everything I've read so far about visanne indicates your period should become lighter and maybe even disappear so I'm wondering if anyone else had this side effect and was there a way to stop the bleeding?

Period Pain Right After Laparoscopy?
A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question đź’­

My first period since my laparoscopy and hysteroscopy for stage 4 endometriosis on my bowels and uterus is due on Monday - I've heard first periods after are extremely painful, and my surgeon tells me to "pre load" with painkillers - has anyone else been through this? Can anyone tell me what to expect?

A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question đź’­

I’ve been on Yaz BC for 4 months and now instead of having pain during ovulation and menses like before the pill, now I’m having pain almost every day and spotting all the time. The doctors keeps saying “wait and see if things even out” but I don’t know how long I should keep trying this pill . This doesn’t feel better

Surgery And IUD
A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question đź’­

I am having surgery to remove the scar tissue and while I am asleep, they want to put an IUD in as well. I am super nervous about the IUD and want to know if there are side effects, and if the IUD is a good route to go.
