endemetriosis
i'm 18 and have severe endemetriosis and suspected it for the last 3 years but the doctors just put me on every birth control pill going saying i was too young for treatment. finally last year i was given the chance for a laparoscopy and it was found i had had it for years and that my stomach and bowel had become attached from adhesions. afterwards i was just put on the pill again but decided to contact a specialist Doctor Mellor from Macclesfield who put me on Zoladex injections for 6 months, these removed all pain and improved my life considerably considering that before i couldn't get out of bed for days on end and found it hard to get on with my life however now i have been put on a new pill you take constantly Cerazette and only three weeks after starting and I have started getting some pains and I am bleeding so you should ask about Zoladex, the side effects are hot flushes and some others but nothing compared to the pain I had. Hope that helps.
