Preventing regrowth after endometriosis surgery

[Hopeful112]

Hi

I have spoken to an endometriosis specialist in London. And surgery is being discussed. I asked him does he give anything to prevent reoccurrence after surgery and he has recommended Noriday.

If anyone has any experience with Noriday or other ways to prevent regrowth please could you advise.

Thank you so much 🌹

Just googled it and it is a standard progeterone only pill like Cerazette. Progesterone only pill is supposed to slow /stop regrowth but it doesn't work for everyone.

I was on Yasmin for 11 years from first diagnosis & endo removal until total hysterectomy last year, and the regrowth was well controlled for 10 years, until it caused adenomyosis so I was happy with that. I had used a lot of different contraceptive pills over the years and Yasmin was by far the best one for me, very few side effects!

Hi cityThank you for replying to me I really appreciate it. Did the yasmin cause adenomyosis?

[city in reply to Hopeful112]

Sorry I wasn't very clear, I meant the endo led to the adeno as it couldn't be removed without total hysterectomy and I was too young to go on HRT so waited as long as I could and took Yasmin. It stopped the adeno getting worse and I managed 10 years before I needed surgery, so it was good for me. I think without some type of hormonal treatment, endo will grow, despite the best removal as the cells are microscopic.

hi there did you try Noriday yet? I’m looking to maybe switch to this mini pill as I’m still having heavy periods on Norgeston did the Consultant in London say the Noriday might help stop periods? Thanks
