    • Close Endometriosis

      I have always had severe cramps and vomiting during my cycles. I have been to many doctors and none have ever said endo. My gyn kept insisting that it was not endo and had no clue what was going on. She sent me to a specialist and within 15 mins in his office he said endo

      Treatments

      Acupuncture Considering
      D&C Working / Worked
      helped with mid-cycle spotting and irregular bleeding
      Depo-Provera Somewhat Helpful
      first shot was 12/18/07. last shot 11/26/08 Over all it was great for pain but still had breakthrough bleeding and still minor cramping, I would do lupron again before depo.
      HSG (Hysterosalpingography) Working / Worked
