endometriosis
Hi all, I’ve been suffering with pain for years at first I thought it was back related pain from having my children but after lots of tests they’ve found endometriosis in my pelvic ligaments, I’m currently on a waiting list for surgery and I’m taking double desogestrel tablets and strong painkillers

desogestrel pill
Hello I'm just wanting some guidance or opinions on desogestrel pill if anyone has been on it for endometriosis or Adenomyosis to help with symptoms. I'm just a bit worried about my weight going up as I'm trying really hard to get it down and my skin turning on me. Thank you in advance 😁

Anyone using Utrogestan to keep thyroid levels steady?
I’m on T3 only and have been very successful with it for quite a few years. A couple of years back owing to becoming a laydee of a certain age, I was prescribed desogestrel (a progesterone only pill) to keep my hormones levels stable. I had found they were dipping regularly and my dose hadn’t changed

Anyone tried Noriday pill?
Hi has anyone tried Noriday mini pill and how did you get on with it? I’m still having heavy periods each month on the Desogestrel/Cerazette and wondering if it’s worth trying Noriday. I’ve tried the Depo injections, Norgeston too.

Combined Pill 7 day break
Hi all, Just looking for a little advice. I’ve been taking the combined pill (Mercilon) back to back for three months and on Monday stopped taking for my scheduled 7 day break. I’m yet to see any significant ‘period’ type bleed, just not sure why? Ive previously tried progesterone only and it didn

Should I reduce my desogestrel dose?
Hi everyone I'm new here, sorry if this seems like a bit of an essay - I am after some advice about desogestrel. I have been on desogestrel for almost 10 months now (8 months at double dose). It's not been an easy ride, constant bleeding everyday (very heavy to start with). Finally at 9 months

Fibroids and Norethisterone, bleeding and spotting
Hi all, I know you've each got enough to deal with, but I've been having a difficult few months and am after some advice. In February I was diagnosed with multiple fibroids. One of them is very large. I've had several ultrasounds and a hysteroscopy booked in for this week. My periods were very heavy

First period on progesterone only pill
Hey everyone💗 I was put on Desogestrel (the progesterone only pill) around 2.5 weeks ago to help 'manage' my endo while I wait for surgery and I would normally be due on my period in a few days time but I'm not really sure what to expect now I'm on the POP. My consultant said that I won't bleed and

How do you take a double dose of desogestrel?
Hello, my gynaecologist has recommended I double the dose of my mini pill to try and reduce pain and stop my constant bleeding. I've struggled to find information on the best way of doing this - am I best taking one every 12 hours (eg. One at 9am and one at 9pm) or am I better off taking 2 at the same

Double-dose progesterone to control symptoms?
Hi all, I’m 35 with suspected endo and been on arm implant (nexplanon) + desogestrel (progesterone only pill) for a year and a half.

Endo regrowth after failed IVF

Has anyone gone through multiple rounds of IVF and found that their endo has started to worsen after laparoscopic removal? I’ve had 3 failed rounds of PGD IVF (medicated both long and short protocols) and had my laparoscopy

Cerelle desogestrel
I've been taking 2x desogestrl tablets daily since January and have noticed the past few months cramping but no period, I've had to go to hospital for morphine to calm this, could this mean my endo has grown back even thought i only had a lap in March 22?
