Has Anyone Gone Back To Taking Placebo Pills After Being On Continuous Birth Control?
A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question 💭

I started taking continuous birth control in 2016 due to severe periods, but now instead of having one debilitating week a month I have issues daily. I dont know if its just the progression of the disease or if its worth it to go back to taking the placebos and have good days 3/4 of the month? I dont even know if that would work..

Ive been on so many different birth control pills Ive lost track of them all lol. I tried nexplanon for two years but had near constant spotting with it so had to taken out and went back on the pill. My old dr did nothing for me besides throwing different birth control pills at me. 🤦🏼‍♀️
Im seeing an infertility specialist (for treatment, not ttc) because of the location of my endo and Im desperately hoping he has some better ideas.
