Hi,

I've been on dianette in the past also. I switched to cerazette after a while which i felt really helped my symptoms. I would definitely recommend a POP (progesterone only pill) as progesterone prevents endometriosis growth. You don't take a break with a POP either so I didn't get periods.

Thank you I've had the coil in the past and that didn't help so just needed sending in right direction xx

Really hope you find something that helps! I have to say the mirena has been the best for me but everyone is different it's so difficult! Xx
