I was on microgynon and because it has oestrogen in, it actually feeds the endo!! I am on cerelle and touch wood so far it's been amazing! My friend has endo too and has recently changed to cerelle and within a few weeks she has noticed the difference.

Good luck! X ☺

Thank you so much for your reply. but if I am being honest I really don't understand anything that you wrote. sorry.?? so do you think it would be best for me to see if they can do a hormone blood test to see what I lack in to see what pill would be best for me?

I wouldn't! I have had MRI scans and been to a specialist in Oxford who put me on cerelle. I appreciate what Lindle is saying but I would keep away from anything with extra oestrogen. X
