Close Endometriosis

I have had endometriosis since I was about 11. It has been, at times, completely disabilitating, but I am doing a bit better now.

Treatments

Extended-Cycle Birth Control Somewhat Helpful

ive been on bc since i was about 13 or so. i have to switch brands/types about every 6 to 10 months because my system acclimates to it.

Laser Surgery Somewhat Helpful

I have had surgery twice for it and had endo removed both times. the first time, it was burned off, the second time it was cut out. the second time has been more helpful.

Progesterone Too Soon to Tell

Provera Not Working

taking this was possibly the worst mistake i have ever made. it took me years to come back from it completely.

Nerve Blocks Working / Worked

I had about 15 of them in different nerves over the course of about 9 months. It helped with the nerve damage that had been caused by the endo and hernias.
