I have been told to take visanne on top of the iud to fix this and to stop getting a period altogether. Has anyone had this experience before?

Oh goodness. Does she think you have adenomyosis? And of course not all pelvic pain is endo. Did you ever get pelvic floor physical therapy? That also helped me a lot. Not trying to say it should replace your plan; just throwing out other ideas that, I hope, might help.

The hormonal meds like Visanne only mask the symptoms. They do not stop Endo from growing. If you had excision surgery, you shouldn’t have more Endo. Did your surgeon say they removed everything?
