What Is The Best Contraceptive Pill That People Have Used To Control Their Endometriosis?
A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question 💭

I am currently taking Diane 35 which seems to work well for my endometriosis but has caused a lot of fluid retention and bloating. I have also had issues with my breasts increasing by at least a whole cup size. It is getting really frustrating and uncomfortable. Any suggestions would be really appreciated.

I didn't but one side effect I know was an issue with this pill can be blood clots, again I never had that problem. I'm a small build person whose only health issue is endo so maybe that could be it.

Microginon 50g (unsure of the spelling but spelt it how it sounds) I've tried a few different pills and depo but this one actually worked.

Hi Natashanel
Thank you. Did you find that the water retention got better? Some days I am having trouble with my clothes fitting me.
