Hi ladies,

Has anyone been prescribed the mini pill (e.g desogestrel) to control endo systems? How long did you take it for and did it help?

Yeah, I have been on this for about three years now and it tackled pretty much all of my symptoms. However recently they have started to reappear again so not sure if it's pill not working anymore or potential endo getting worse... I'll keep you updated as I have an appointment next week with gynae xx

I hope it works for you!
