Had same response when I first got diagnosed .

But three months for me was not long enough .

A few years later

Different dr

Put me on pill to stop cycles . Plan was for a year

By then I'd been through so much I needed the break.

The first 3-4 months I Kept getting pain like my period was coming.

By the end of the fourth month I felt great .

At ten months I had breakthrough bleeding so dr doubled my dose but my bp shot up he says

" off the pill now

I was so upset .

The previous months with little pain and not waiting for a period that always came was a huge relief .

But to my surprise I stayed pretty much pain free .

When last checked with a lapro one one year after finishing the pill break and the next 5 years down the road no endo was found .

I had horrid scar tissue From previous surgeries but I felt better than I had in a long long time

Sometimes it works

Sometimes something else works

We fall down

We get up again

It will work out for most ppl somehow
