Has Anyone Tried Leech Therapy For Endometriosis?

They put the leeches on your abdomen "The saliva in leeches is rich with enzymes that can prevent coagulation of blood which leads to blood clots." It's called hirudotherapy. And in some cases they even put leeches into the vagina.

I tried leaches. They do really help. However, it’s still not magic…

I wish you luck ❤️
