Hello I have been suffering from severe period pain for more than 1year now extending to anal pain during period. Recently consulted my gynae who has prescribed Microgynon back to bacl for 6 month. I want to know if there is any other treatment. I really don't want to go on the pill.

Treatment of endometriosis
Morning! Sorry to hear you're in so much pain. I used to have horrendous periods. How about the mirena coil?
How about a progesterone pill to "dampen" down the Endo ask your GP. Good Luck
Hi, honey! If no medical way you may try the following foods for endometriosis
.
Organic foods – Pesticides can affect estrogen and other hormones, therefore it is important to choose only organic.
Wild-caught fish – Foods high in EPA/DHA reduce inflammation and reduces pain.
Flax, hemp seeds and chia seeds – Will help improve estrogen levels, consume 3 tablespoons daily.
Cruciferous vegetables – Increases Indole-3-carbinol, which supports liver detoxification.
Avocados – Are high in healthy fats, fiber, potassium and magnesium all of which support hormone balance and reduce inflammation.
Hope this helps. Take care!

Top 5 Natural Endometriosis Remedies
#1 Vitex (chasteberry) (400 mg 2x daily). It balances progesterone/ estrogen ratios.
#2 Fish Oil (1,000mg daily). It helps reduce inflammation and balance hormones.
#3 B-complex (50 mg daily). B vitamins are crucial in estrogen levels and hormone balance.
#4 Progesterone Cream (1/4 tsp, days 6-26 of cycle, stop after 3rd m. pregnancy) Low progesterone often contributes to endometriosis.
#5 Milk Thistle (150 mg 2x daily). It supports liver detoxification which can naturally balance hormones.
Anyway i would be better to have a second opinion with another dr (if you don't accept the pills offered with your previous dr). Wishing you the best!
