Saw my doctor today to discuss treatment options after my lappy (May 2019) and continuous hormonal birth control (no periods) have failed to manage my symptoms. Can anyone share their experience with the Orilissa treatment?
Hey ladies! I will be having my left ovary removed soon. I keep becoming septic and in and out of the hospital. My Doctor would like me to start on Orilissa after my surgery. Can I hear your stories about this medication?

I have had horribly painful periods since I was 14. My periods would last 30+ days, so I was put on the pill before I could drive.

Depo is a perscribed birthcontrol shot that is given every 3 months, you dont get a period while on it.
For those of you who have had success with reducing pain with orilissa, how long did it you take the meds before your pain was reduced?
So far I have had 3 1 month shots and each month my symptoms are worse. I have bad hot flashes and I am also on progesterone tablets.
I’m so sorry to hear it hasn’t gotten any better and that you’re going through this.
Has anyone used Lupron before. I am considering it but would love some feedback.
I am 5 days into taking Orilissa. I have been bleeding nonstop since november, but the bleeding is slightly worse. Pain is improved a bit, but the bleeding is worse. Anyone else experience this?
Ohhhh yeah and lupron do work faster I just don’t like it cause you can’t stop it if you have too many bad side effects I say give it at least two weeks to fully be in your system
Any one taking orillisa pills?
How have you been feeling??
