i have no seriouse side effects, i how ever seem to brake through with a cycle where this medication is supposed to stop it, so i dont get as many problems but i am still suffering significantly. i am no longer on this, as they want me to get very sick for testings so they can find all the endo on the lungs and get it removed asap, before it gets to bad where they will have to remove apart of the right lung or the whole thing.

I was on Danazol for 2 time periods, once for 6 months, the other for one year. I had horrible hot flashes while on the medicine but experienced few other side effects. Although in reflecting back on the treatment I'm wondering if it did lead to the onset of my fibromyalgia symptoms.
Danazol was nice because it was one of the few things that stopped my periods from coming. It was also necessary for me because my periods were at the point of requiring blood transfusions due to severe anemia

It worked while I was on it, but endo symptoms returned almost immediately after completing my 6mos treatment.
