Pill help/advice

After nearly a year of the coil not working for me, I finally have had it removed. I was wondering if anyone knows any certain pills than can help with endo symptoms? I always find my stomach really hurts before and during my period. Any specific pills for me to ask from the doctor? I’ve heard a combined pill is good? Any thoughts?

Many thanks

Charlotte. X

Hi Charlotte, I listened to a good podcast about the pill on thisendolife yesterday, i’d recommend it. I’m no expert and finding my own way with all this too! I also only lasted a year with the coil, it just never felt settled to me. I have had most success with the nexplanon implant for stopping periods and reducing pain, but I still get stomach issues and bad pms. Everyone reacts differently though. :)
