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?

Has anyone delevoped endo/symptoms after a c-section? I never had health issues or endo symptoms until I had my son via c-section in 2016. Took over a year to finally be diagnosed with stage one endo. It just doesn’t make sense to me.

If Depo is used for treatment of endo, is it possible for someone to have it and it not be noticeable even when a doctor is removing an ovary and fallopian tube, even when a biopsy is done?

Hello, I am going to see an ob/gyn that specializes in abdominal pain and endometriosis. This is the first time I go to a consultation like this one and I'm wondering if anyone has any advice that could help me get the help. I've suffered extremely painful periods for about 10 years and about 1 full year of lower left abdominal pain that feels like ovulation but happens at all times of my cycle now. Thanks for the help everyone!

The last 6 months or more, I have been getting pain in the same regions that I experience endo pain.
I’ve been thinking the pain is gastro related as I don’t have any periods, but my GP thinks it’s endo and has done a gyny referral.

So does anyone else experience… read more

I tried 3 IUDs and my body rejected all 3; then tried Norethrindrone and I hated it . My weight changed for the worse and it effected my mood. So I stopped . My doc told me about a newer pill called Slynd . Wondering if anyone else has had experience with this ?
