It might take your period awhile to reset itself after surgery. Surgery throws your cycle out of whack

Letrozole
A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question 💭

My doc prescribed Letrozole for estrogen supression. I have been on it 9 days and have been experiencing fullness in my ovaries and uterus. They are very swollen and tender, they fell like they are going to pop. I couldn't sleep due to the pain and barely made it through my work day. My mood has also been effected and I have been more depressed. I called my doctor and they offered to switch to Ayegestin, but its up to me. Has anyone experienced a decrease in side effects with Letrozole? I don't… read more

How Do You Know When It's Time For Surgery?
A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question 💭

I had a laporscopy about 4 years ago and I felt better for about a year before things got really bad again I was on a waiting list for surgery last year until we found out I was pregnant with my baby girl. After having her I felt great for a few months and now the pain is coming back I'm noticing it more and more. It's not constant like it used to be so I'm wondering if it's worth looking into surgery now or if I should wait till it gets worse and do it then

A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question 💭

Ive been on Primolut N (Norethindrone) for almost a month and in the beginning i was getting headaches all the time ( i normally never have headaches) and my mood is still all over the place.

Zoladex - Does It Actually Reduce Endometriotic Cyst?
A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question 💭

After my first laproscopy last year, I developed a cyst again in April 2023 and I am under treatment since then. I am planning to conceive and my doctor gave me 2 injections of zoladex in 1 month gap to reduce the cyst. I started with 5cm and after 3 months it's 7.3cm. Obviously it didn't work for me but he is too confident that I don't need a surgery and my cyst can be reduced and I can further go for pregnancy. Has anyone been in this situation before where zoladex turned out to be not… read more

Visanne Vs Aygestin
A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question 💭

Anyone tried both Visanne (Dienogest) and Aygestin (Norethindrone)? If so, please share your experience regarding effectiveness for endometriosis. Did one medication have more side effects (breakthrough bleeding, weight gain, bloating, and fluid retention, etc) than the other?

Vissane worked for me, no weight gain, no acne. Effects were mood swings, low libido at times, nauseous feeling.

A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question 💭

Hello, I wanted to speak to people that have been diagnosed and how they knew it was endo. I've been going to the doctor due to lower left abdomen pain that has been going on for a year. Some days it's worse than others but when on my period the pain in my entire uterus and rectum is really extremely bad (for about 5 years now) It doesn't feel like cramps and sometimes I feel like I'm going to faint or like something is trying to come out of my because of the shooting pains but now my lower left… read more

Treatment Suggestions
A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question 💭

Hello everyone,

I just had laparoscopic surgery 2/22 and my gynecologist has found adhesion/ endo in my uterus. Some were able to be removed however there are still smaller ones still there. The gynecologist told my parents I would need the shot I’m guessing (lupron) which will put me in a menopause state. My question is what treatments have you sought out? Is the shot worth it or should I look into alternatives I’m already on birth control and have been for years.
