Hi Ladies. I need to know if there are any ladies who saw a difference after using Zoely?

Roodepoort, ZA

I have recurring cysts on the left ovary. I have taken most of the medication’s out there. I am giving Zoely a chance as the Gynea believe it might help with the cysts not returning as fast. I’m at a long where I’m ready to have the the ovaries removed . This endometriosis has be aggressive for the past 5 years and I just cannot have yet another lyproscopy .

Also , anyone who has had their ovaries removed or the entire womb - did the endo go away??

Are you wondering if Zoely helps prevent recurring ovarian cysts, and whether removing your ovaries or uterus would eliminate endometriosis?

Unfortunately, the search results don't include specific experiences with Zoely for endometriosis or ovarian cysts. However, hormonal birth control pills can help manage endometriosis symptoms and may reduce the risk of ovarian cysts forming.

Regarding ovary or uterus removal, it's important to understand that endometriosis is a lifelong illness and there's no guaranteed cure, even with surgery.

Hysterectomy outcomes show:
- About 76% of people had less severe pain after hysterectomy
- However, around 21.6% experienced severe pain again after 37 months or more
- One MyEndometriosisTeam member shared: "I had my uterus removed in 2018 and kept my ovaries. My pain came back after about six months, but it was less intense."

For ovary removal (oophorectomy):
- Removing ovaries causes early menopause, which brings risks like heart disease and osteoporosis
- Pain reduction rates are similar whether ovaries are kept or removed
- The key is that all endometriosis tissue must be carefully removed during surgery

If ovaries are removed and you use hormone replacement therapy afterward, endometriosis typically doesn't return. However, you'll need to discuss HRT risks with your doctor.

It's worth having a detailed conversation with your gynecologist about whether these surgical options are right for you, considering the potential benefits and risks.
