I have severe endometriosis. I've tried multiple types of birth control. None have helped, and several have actually made my situation worse. For example, on most of them I pass a fist-sized ball of endometrium, AT ONE TIME, during my period. I take pain meds (usually Percoset, otherwise known as Oxycodone) almost daily. When I'm not taking that (which is about 1/4 of the time) I take Cataflam, an anti-spasmodic and anti-inflammatory drug. I have also undergone Lupron treatments. If you don't know what Lupron is, please look it up. That worked for 8 months and the problem came right back.
I have gone to numerous OBGYNs and asked for a hystorectomy. None will give it to me because I have no children. (I am 27 and KNOW I hate kids and never want any...)
So, do I have any other options that will work?
