Mirena IUD At The Same Time As Orilissa?
A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question 💭

I have adenomyosis in addition to endometriosis. My doctor is recommending that I try Orilissa at the same time as the Mirena IUD to treat both conditions. Has anyone heard of doing this? I am not seeing it mentioned online. Thanks!

My doc is wanting to do the same thing, I am on Orilissa and stopped my birth control pills. Not Mirena yet, I'm nervous I don't know if this is the right plan or not... anyone able to share anything new on this?

Hi OP, just wondering if you went through with both Orilissa and Mirena together? If so, what was your experience? My doc is proposing the same thing...

I had endo and adenomyosis confirmed at my laparoscopy in Feb and had mirena put in - not finding it's helping w my pain and also have had 6x UTI since my surgery- started a month after - beginning of march- and have kept coming😐My surgeon is unwilling to say it's from the mirena but I think what else could it be?

I also have adenomyosis but Endo is not confirmed because I have not had a lap done yet. I take the Orilissa for the adenomyosis. It has helped when I have been able to take it more consistently. Insurance sucks though trying to get it approved. I've had to rely on samples from my doctor.
