Zoladex (GnRH agonist) + simultaneous HRT - help!
Which was: Ethinylestradiol 30 microgram /
Levonorgestrel
150 microgram prescribed for 6 months by the looks of things. I am trying to find the guidelines on add-back therapies in the NICE Guidelines for Endometriosis, but it does not go into specifics at all in regards to the add-back.

Endo - struggling with hormonal contraception as a treatment
I now realise that one of the active ingredients in Rigevidon is
levonorgestrel
, the same as the Mirena coil. I have gone from being absolutely fine right back to having the darkest thoughts, not wanting to leave the house, being unable to cope etc.

Has anyone else switched to Kyleena from Mirena and had Endo symptoms return? + migraines?
Apparently Kyleena has a lower dose of the hormone
Levonorgestrel
than Mirena, perhaps this might be the reason? Millie. Age 27, Based in Manchester Treatment: Mirena from 2014-19, Kyleena 2019-present

Anyone trying Mirena (levonorgestrel) & Cerazette (desogestrel) together?
Hi, Is there anyone trying Mirena (
levonorgestrel
) and mini pill Cerazette (desogestrel) together? I have endometriosis (stage IV), and it floored me, and left me in so much pain last month that I couldn't think or talk. I had two trips to the A&E by ambulance.

Maexeni to Ridgivedon
So I was moved off of maexeni to ridgivedon by my dr as it’s cheaper I believe, it says it’s the same ingredients as maexeni (0.03 mg ethinylestradiol and 0.15 mg
levonorgestrel
) So am I right in thinking it will be the exact same as before?

Androgenic hair loss
These androgenic types are as follows, norgestrel, norethisterone, and
levonorgestrel
they are androgenic and can cause hair loss. I will add a link for those of us that are suffering. The link includes several labs that can confirm the condition and rule of the thyroid link.

Contraceptive pill to delay period for frozen transfer
I have Maexeni (Ethinylestradiol,
Levonorgestrel
). I have to take this on the first day of my period. I've not taken the pill before so don't really know how quick it acts.

Mirena IUD levonorgestrel levels after 6 years?
Does anyone know how the hormonal side of the Mirena works in terms of longevity. ie Should I expect any side effects when this is replaced as the level of
levonorgestrel
has lessened over the 6 years and therefore I will receive a greater amount in the IUD when its put back in?

Endo, the pill and kidneys?
Looking at the hormone levels of both, evra had 200 micrograms of norelgestromin and 33.9 micrograms ethinylestradiol per day and logynon is triphasic and eventually increases so starts with 50 micrograms of
levonorgestrel
and 30 micrograms of ethinylestradiol.

Norgeston mini pill
It contains
Levonorgestrel
(the same as the Mirena coil). I have read it can cause headaches, Acne/skin reactions and weight gain, irregular periods/heavy periods - has anyone experienced this?

I need to delay my period
Hey guys I’m on the maexeni combined pill
levonorgestrel
/Ethinylestradiol 150/30 and have so far taken 2 21 day packs together but really need to take a 3rd. I have friends that always take 3 packs together then have a period. Would it be okay to do so in this instance?

Experiences with Lo-Estrin 20 vs Mercilon
Lo-Estrin 20 has lower levels of oestrogen and a different progestogen than what’s in the Mirena (
Levonorgestrel
).
