Has anybody tried this and did it help with pain? My gynecologist has just prescribed this to see if it helps with pain then failing this it will have to be a laparoscopy

Hi! Yes was prescribed these many, many years ago after a Laparoscopy showed Endo, they 'damp' down the bleeding thus can ease pain. Before the Lap and Endo diagnosis I was on Mefenamic Acid(Ponstan) for bad period pain this was my initial saviour couldn't function without them could actually feel the pain easing about 20 mins after taking a tab. Wish you pain free days🤞
