Hi All,

I had endometriosis since I’ve got my period, but just recently during the surgery of fibroids, doctors discovered that it’s severe and spread in everywhere. They prescribed a visanne, which I took for 2,5 months, but it’s worth, as I’m bleeding almost every day, even I stopped taking it

I was/am not looking to get pregnant so I can’t speak to that, but I do have a friend who did see fertility results from acupuncture.

Hi There! I worked with a Chinese medicine doctor and did acupuncture and cupping for about 5 months before my surgery, then for a few months after. Before my surgery, it did help manage some symptoms, but there were times it caused flare ups. I stopped going a few months after surgery because it was still causing my body to flare up. If I start up again, I will ask my practitioner to do less each session since I am SO sensitive and give my body a chance to process the treatment. I am in the US so I don’t have any recommendations, but it’s worth a try!
