I was recently diagnosed with Endometriosis stage IV. I was overseas at the time and had a laparoscopy done and it all went ok. However being overseas I was prescribed Visanne-Dienogest which I have come to find out is not used or approved in the UK. What medication is usually used here too treat Endo? I will hopefully see my GP soon because I'm running out of Visanne. What about Qlara? Is it used to treat Endo or is it merely a birth control pill?
Thanks!!
