Period Stopped And Vaginal Dryness Was Extreme While On Visanne. Anyone Had The Same Problem?
A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question 💭

i’ve been taking Visanne for like 6-7months already and i told my doctor that i wanted to stop cuz im having vaginal dryness and low libido and its kinda make me depress. I decided to stop after end of this month but like recently i got my libido back. and surprisingly the vaginal dryness isn’t that bad anymore! and i haven’t got my period in like 4 months but now i got a little bit of spotting out of no where. Is it something to worry abt??

Visanne actually works like that. While you are on medication you will get less or no period. Once you are off the medication you will get your period after like 10-15 days so I don't think there is… read more

Spotting While On Visanne
A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question 💭

I have been taking Visanne for 5 weeks now. My doctor said I would not get periods so I was not worried when my period did not come last month ( I always had regular menstruation).
Today, I had light spotting. I'm worried now. Did you experience this too?

Should I Continue To Take Lupron If I Still Have Constant Pain Everyday?
A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question 💭

I continued to have constant pain after having Laproscopy in January. The pain may not be AS bad as before the surgery, but now I have new pain that I didn't have before. My doctor suggested take Lupron Depot since I was still experiencing pain. I took the 3 month dose in August and I'm still having constant pain daily. I'm scheduled to take another 3 month dose in a couple of weeks. Advise, please, ladies; should I take another shot of Lupron even though I'm still in pain??

Lupron Injections
A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question 💭

Does anyone who is on Lupron get serious bone/muscle pain? Not sure if it's just bone pain or muscle pain that accompanies it. I'm in so much pain right now.

I'm About To Start Lupron
A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question 💭

how did the lupron work for you?? I have bipolar & anxiety. Worried about how it'll effect those.

If u dont like it, then tell your dr and dont do anymore injections. Since it is a shot, it does stay in your system longer than pills

Do You Think Hysterectomy Will Help?
A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question 💭

Hi everyone,

I had 2 surgeries to treat endometriosis which both didn't help with the pain at all. In fact, they gave me more symptoms such as longer heavier period and severe constipation. (As I have stage 4 endo that attached to the bowel and I guess it may affect my nerve to pass the bowel)

After reading stories of other sufferers, I found my case is a little bit different that I do not have everyday pain like others but my pain will be before, during and after having period only but a… read more
