Mirena and cerazette for endometriosis

I recently had a Mirena inserted in order to help reduce my endometriosis pain. Unfortunately I ended up with more pain especially on my left side. I then decided to try to see if Cerazette could stop the pain and have been taking 2 pills a day and already my left side pain has gone away. Just wondering if anyone had tried taking two mini pills a day to help with endometriosis pain? I have severe endometriosis and I am interested in findings out what combinations of treatments have worked for others. #mirena #cerazette #endometriosis
