What pill (/hormone) has worked for you?

Hi all,

Lap 10 months ago now, COCP was working semi-beautifully ... now not so good.

What pills have worked for you?

What hasn't worked for you?

Or any other treatment suggestions? Thinking about trying more pills then last resort is depo.

Also I appreciate endo is very individualised so what works for one might not work for another. But I am going through desperate times...

Hi, i tried just about anything and found that only mirena coil worked for me. I did have prostap injections to clear up endo before i had the coil put in. Hope this helps.

By the way i cannot understand why laparoscopy is used to treat endo, is prostap not available anymore? I feel like nobody talks about it and it's the only thing that killed my endo. I don't hear about mirena either and i feel like this combination was a godsend to me! I don't know what would've happened to me if it wasn't for it.
